I applied through university. I interviewed at Google (Hampton, VA) in Sept 2019

The interview process was very smooth. I did two official mock interviews with Google engineers at my university leading up to the interview, which helped a ton. I had two back to back technical interviews.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I don't remember specific as it has been over a year now. But in my first technical interview, I got through two problems both involving arrays. In my second interview, I was asked to reverse an integer and another question involving a linked list.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Google in Jan 2018
Interview
There was three steps I'd say for EP Intern.
1. Short Answers when you apply + Initial Screening
2. Two technical internviews. Mine were back to back over the phone. However, I've seen people being invited on-site too; depends on your location.
3. Team matching. For EP (now it's STEP), you are guaranteed to be matched with a team. I interviewed with 3 different teams. Got matched with the last one. This part is pretty important for normal SWE interns, however, EPs can just relax and choose the best they think they'd fit.

I applied for the position online. A recruiter reached out and scheduled two back to back phone interviews. The first one was behavioral and included a code reading portion, and the second one was a technical coding question.
