      Technical Program Manager Interview

      May 16, 2011
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Mountain View, CA
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Google (Mountain View, CA) in May 2011

      Interview

      Initially contacted by recruiter via e-mail with job description and whether I was interested in interviewing by phone with the hiring manager. Recruiter seemed a little disorganized, sending e-mails without the proper attachments and providing the wrong time for the phone interview. The actual interview with the hiring manager was not too bad. He first asked questions about my previous work experience. Then, he asked questions about my masters thesis. Next, he started asking questions to test your technical ability. However, since we came from different engineering disciplines he was quite sure about what to ask. Finally, he asked questions to test your reasoning ability.
