I sent my curriculum to a recruiter. Talked over phone and then got a phone interview. Writing code in a google doc feels weird, you should practice. I thought the interview ( two algorithm/code questions) went ok but they told me we would not move forward. A few months later I got contacted by another recruiter because the first interview was indeed decent and they would give me a second chance. The phone interview went well (a lot of questions about testing and how would you test a google product and a code question). They flew me in a google office. The accommodation was good and they paid everything. I got 5 interviews mostly with other SETs and lunch with a nice guy. Questions were about coding/algorithms, system design and testing. Coding was on a very big whiteboard. Questions on how would you deal with current google products are asked a lot. They all asked something about me, my background, etc.. All of them were nice to me. I was told that the interviews were positive but in the end they decided not to hire me.

Very friendly recruiter, she took the time to go through the overall process. I appreciated the attitude.
Sadly I did not match the jobs requirements so it didn't go further than the first HR meeting.

LinkedIn HR called, phone interview, then onsite interviews, HR was calling frequently to update status (good), one of the interview was just too cold, he wasn't very responsive throughout

Colloquio
The interviewer asked 2questions.
One coding question although I wrote the package and relevant classes to be used to solve the problem. Interviewer was not happy, as I wrote code in Java and the interviewer expected it in some other language of his preference. They made me prepare DS, Algorithms, OS, System Design. And asked a non-relevant question not part of any of the subjects asked to prepare. They boast aroud their "Reduced Four" interview process. But, their interviewers need more trainings. Ethical interviews, unethical practices like the EU antiTrust fine.
