Interviewing tips
- Know what interests you about Google and why you’ve applied.
- Familiarize yourself with Google’s products and services. Research our competitors.
- If you are interviewing for a software engineering or technical role, be ready to answer high-level technical questions on data-structures and algorithms. We would like you to code up your answers on boards with our engineers.
- Familiarize yourself with the job description you are interested in.
- If you are interviewing for a software engineering role then you may first want to visit the website www.topcoder.com. Please launch the “Arena” widget and go to the practice rooms where you can solve problems in the first and second division.
- Ensure you can substantiate anything your CV/resume says – for instance, if you list Java or Haskell as your key programming language, questions about this are fair game and may be asked of you.
