J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris plus d'une semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez Google (Mountain View, CA) en sept. 2015
Entretien
Fast and then slow, fast and then slow. They had fits and starts, it was very inconsistent. They promised feedback and meetings but then lots of 'things came up.' The onsite interview was very well run. All video conferencing was smooth and when it wasn't rooms were quickly rescheduled and calls immediately re-initiated.

Question 1
Mostly about how to deliver software on time and prioritize deliverables. The team seemed very junior.

Recruiter screen focused on scope, org size, and why this role. Hiring manager deep dive on strategy, execution, and people leadership. Then 4–6 panel interviews: product/technical judgment, cross-functional influence, stakeholder management, and leadership behaviors with detailed examples. Emphasis on impact at scale, decision quality, handling ambiguity, and raising the bar. Final step was team matching and compensation/level review.

Tell me about a time you led a large, ambiguous initiative across multiple orgs with conflicting stakeholders. How did you set direction, align leaders, manage trade-offs, and measure impact—and what would you do differently?

Hard but good. Interview loop is tough, but really great people with experience and clear set of goals. The loop was with various people from the company. Each played a role and were very friendly.
