Try to organize interview after 8 pm because US interviewers are bit friendly than the Chinese and Korean ones. If you schedule your interview in day time, then you will encounter non US interviewer

They do allow extensions. You should just ask.

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

I had been reached out by a Google Recruiter around two weeks back and we had a discussion about interview dates, He asked me about my potential dates as per my prep time etc. and we finalized on a date which is after 4 weeks. After my confirmation, I received email invites for those dates from Google. Now that the interview time is near, I feel like I am still not at my best and would do better by preparing more for an extra 2-3 weeks.

Is it fine to request another 2-3 weeks extension? Has anyone ever been in similar situations before with Google? Do they allow extension of the initially locked schedule.

Google Interviews- Grapevine

I am in the process of getting interviewed by Google. I had to reschedule it by a week due to some unforeseen circumstances.
Will it leave a bad impression on the HRs if I go ahead and reschedule it again?

Is it a good idea to reschedule a Google interview twice ?

Hey folks, I got reached out by a recruiter from Google reg an open position

I just wanted to know what would the ideal prep strategy look like. I like to think I'm below average in leetcode. I can solve a lc mediums maybe under 30 mins. But lc hard is a different ball game for me. 

How long should I request for in terms of a preparation time. And it'd help what all concepts should be focussed.

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

Googlers in this community , how long was ur interview process ?  like the timeline between 1st call from recruiter to finally getting offer letter. Just wanted to know how slow the process is . Also , did you have to go through additional rounds of interviews not initially mentioned in the initial call with the recruiter?

I am done with all technical rounds but HR is taking too long to respond with the results. It has been 2 weeks. What to do?

Hi guys,
I am getting calls from recruiters starting last week and most of them are asking whether they can schedule an interview the next day?
I am currently in a super hectic different tech stack project.  I need 2-3 days or a week to be ready na?

How do I convince the recruiters to have it after a few days not the next day or day after?

Can anybody working at Google India, throw some light on what’s happening with Hiring. Seeing some posts related to layoff, people interviewing, people getting ghosted by recruiters after interviews. I’ve seen few people waiting for their interview feedback for few weeks after completing their all interview rounds. Is google going to stop hiring or there are too many candidates applying? Any insights would be helpful. Thanks

I'm currently working as an L59 with MS and am about to be promoted in this cycle to L60 with a total experience of 2 yrs
Asking for suggestions as to how i can prepare for google L4 interviews and any roadmaps that can help in the preparation. I've about 3-6 months to prepare.
Requesting googlers as to what will be the best strategy to prepare for the same.
Thanks in advance.

Prepare for Google L4

I needed some help in coming up with a study plan to specifically train for Google's interview process. I currently have 4yoe, so I think the interviews will be for SDE2 role. There will be 3 DSA rounds, 1 Googleyness, and 1 Leadership round. I already have experience in DSA and have solved most of Neetcode 150 (except DP, Bit Manipulation, and some hard problems). If any of you have given Google (or any FAANG) interview before, I would love to get some guidance on how to prepare in 30 days. I already know most of the common algorithms like DFS, BFS, Sliding window, Binary search, etc so I won't have to start from scratch.

Also, the recruiter mentioned that I will have only 45 mins to solve two questions: mostly 1 hard and 1 medium. So I basically have around 20 mins per problem, which I feel is very difficult to solve a Leetcode Hard problem unless you have seen it before. Did I misunderstand the recruiter? Are there any tips on how to get good at this?

Got a call from a Google recruiter, have onsite interviews in 30 days

What are my chances of actually receiving an offer after HC asked for 2 additional rounds of interview? 
Feels like a supplementary exam, i.e., they were not interested earlier. I would like to know how often they change their minds based on additional rounds?

Google interview experience

Hey,

So I completed my prelims round @google , cleared it
completed 3/5 and its been almost 10 days - haven't heard back from my recruiter.

I have just one point of contact, so feeling kinda helpless as to whom I can reach out to.
Like i followed up thrice now over a period of one week - very respectfully.

I mean its my dream role and honestly, every day not getting any response is honestly painful - even If I didn't make it - At least I should hear back right? and I understand the number of applications must be extremely high - but still the process should be somewhat smooth right? Its Google after all.

Any suggestions on how to tackle the above situation?
