I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Google (Ankara) in Apr 2016
Interview
2 times 45 min online interview on hangout. At first, 3 easy algorithm questions are asked about data structures. At second part, interviewer asked questions about projects on my resume. Then, he asked architectural question which I didn't expect.

Question 1
Check for balanced parentheses in an expression,
Given an expression string exp, write a program to examine whether the pairs and the orders of “{“,”}”,”(“,”)”,”[“,”]” are correct in exp. For example, the program should print true for exp = “[()]{}{[()()]()}” and false for exp = “[(])”
Clear, structured, and professional conversation. The questions were relevant and thoughtfully asked, the discussion flowed naturally, and I felt heard and respected throughout. Overall, it was a positive and well-organized interview experience.
