I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Google (London, England) in Mar 2025
Interview
First discussion with HR to determine fit and goals, then 3 interviews that follow based on different categories. GCA, Googleyness, and Role Knowledge. Each one has slight differences and a bit of weight that changes determined on the category. GCA notably being the most difficult.
