Status: Bootcamp grad
Position: Front-end Engineer, Google
Location: Mountain View, CA
Round-1-> Interview with Recruiter
Covers basic conversation on how to prepare, learning more about the process, general screening of resume and experience.
Round 2-> Technical interview with Engineer
1 hour phone screen. Typical medium-level algorithm problem that can be solved in 30 minutes but is iterated on. Note, these are leetcode style but often are variations of leet code problems and not exactly the same.
Round-3—> Onsite interview (5 rounds) + lunch
Grueling onsite with 5 technical rounds. 3 of the rounds were algorithm based and 2 of them focused on domain specific knowledge (in this case, front-end work and javascript).
Each algorithm was medium level leetcode style. Not too difficult, but also not the same as problems you may have seen in the past. Each problem is slightly unique.
Domain specific knowledge was more of things you know or don’t know. Not much you can do besides prepare and know your stuff.
Overall did not get an offer but interviewed proved to be less hard than previously expected. It’s do-able with enough studying, but was hard for someone coming right out of a bootcamp to crack.
