Interview questions [1]

Why google
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Google (Mountain View, CA) in Aug 2021
Interview
Started with a recruiter phone screen that was entirely behavioral followed by followed by 1 video round with a senior PM and then a virtual onsite with 5 interviews covering product strategy, product design, estimation, technical and behavioral/culture fit. If you have taken the Product Alliance Google PM Interview course, the interview is really straight forward.

-Market size the remittance payments market in the US.

Most of the weird questions I got were listed in the Product Alliance question sheet so I had prepared for them beforehand.
