I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Google (Kraków) in Oct 2024
Interview
3 stage interview (apart from phone screening): coding, system design, code review. 1h workshops preparing for every stage.
Workshops are very helpful so I recommend attending.
Coding done in a special editor with syntax highlighting but without suggestions. Problem from algorithms and data structures area. It's important to choose the correct data structure from the start because later there will be no time to fix the mistake (one stage takes 45mins)
