Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 5 giorni. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Google (Mountain View, CA) nel mese di mar 2010
Colloquio
Applied online and received an email that day about a 30 minute phone interview. The interviewer was helpful and informative about the job requirements and knowledgeable about the position. The interview included questions such as 'Why do you want to work at Google' and 'What quantitative analysis experience do you have'. I was told that the whole process if accepted would take about 8 weeks: 2 more phone interviews with members of the team, an Excel case, and then a whole day in-person interview, after which the team would review my compensation package and verify they could create a job description for me.
Got the 'thanks for applying' a week later.
Take home case test and if passed, went through 3 interviews with hiring org for role competency questions and outside department that covered Googleyness and cultural fit questions. Questions focused on how one problem solves.

How would you deal with a coworker who was not fulfilling their commitments for a project?
Process was very straightforward and efficient. 3x 1 hour interviews (2 members of the team, 1 cross-functional team member) a mix of hypothetical questions (e.g., how would you address a situation like X, or how would you determined if Y project was successful or not) and behavioral questions (e.g., tell me about a time you had conflict with a team member).

The process so far has taken close to five months - at this point I assume the role is no longer open (or was ever open). First recruiter (R1) was great, she took my application and saw a fit for an alternative role and passed me through to a new recruiter (R2). R2 provided me with an Excel based test and project via e-mail. The project mainly included fixing/building out a compensation calculator and providing analysis based on several questions; took several hours to fully complete. I was informed I successfully completed the test, however, the hiring team were busy with year-end processes. I followed-up on a bi-weekly basis and after receiving few responses, I did some investigating and R2 was no longer with the company. I reached out to R1 for advice who kindly put me in contact with a new recruiter (R3). R3 asked me to re-send my project, to which I was told I had passed (again), and then she explained the hiring team were waiting on budget considerations. At least another month or so went by with me being put in a holding position and at this point I have decided to not follow-up further. It seems disrespectful and a bad candidate experience to never have the opportunity to speak to anyone (even over the phone) about the role despite having me spend several hours diligently successfully complete a project test.

Never had the opportunity to answer any as I was put in the aforementioned holding pattern.
