Colloquio
The APM Interview process is quite an extensive one. The first round is a 45 minute call with one of the Google PM's which is aimed at testing your product sense, strategy and estimation skills. After you clear this round there are 5 different video interviews before the hiring team makes a decision. I had given the first round-phone interview in October 2022, but have not received an update as Google has a hiring freeze in place.

The interview started with introductions. I was then asked a product sense question where I was given a particular product and asked what would I do to monetize the product if I was a PM at the company. I was then asked to estimate the initial user adoption for this product in the first year.
In total it's 7 interviews. It helps to know all products frameworks. They asked interesting questions like, how to build a fridge for the blind, how to build an elevator for skyscrapers, etc. Interviewers are nice and I believe it helps for your responses to be reasonable and not super hypothetical, but that's just my 2 cent.
Tested communication and product skills, leaning into product design and improvement questions and general problem solving skills. The interviewer was very supportive and guided how to proceed with the problem statement.
Interview focused on a standard product design question, involving designing a new product for travellers that Google would launch, and explaining reasoning and prioritisation. Follow up questions would be asked regarding the product design.
