To prepare for interviews, recruits should be ready to demonstrate authentic interest in Google, and the job they are applying for. As an example, they might do some homework on what they love and hate about Google.
Furthermore, Google wants to hear about 'what potential recruits think'. However, authenticity, passion, and interest are not often demonstrated by many people, because they are terrified by the interview situation. Therefore, candidates should take a position on something and ask questions, if they feel that an issue is important to them (it might also be important for Google).
The process was pretty easy and straight forward. Depending on level usually a couple rounds of interviews but just depends. We’re all done virtually and less than one hour. Very responsive during whole process.
Challenging. Structured. Three questions. Requires structured answers. Emphasis on role related knowledge and cognitive ability. Very relevant to role. I would do case studies and have examples of oast experiences written in an understandable form as reference
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Google (Shanghái, Shanghai) in Feb 2026
