I interviewed at Google by applying through their forum and got a call from HR. First round was purely DSA based and I couldn’t clear it but the interviewer is quiet friendly and ask you the approach while solving the question. Be prepared with the Leetcode Google questions.
I applied online. I interviewed at Google (Warschau, Masowien) in Feb 2026
Interview
3 rounds, a phone call, then behavioral interview and a coding round. All of them lasts about 45min. During coding round I've expected some leetcode-like medium problems, but get a problem with ~40 lines of description. So reached a timeout at about 50-60% of final solution
