I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Google in Nov 2022
Interview
Had an OA first and then two synchronous interviews with current software engineers. First interviewer was quite rude and unhelpful when I got stuck. He sighed often and just seemed overall frustrated. The question was pretty tough. Second interview was a simpler hashmap question and the interviewer was nicer. Did not get past these two interviews.

Question 1
Robot spitting out commands and how would process them
As expected from a Google interview, it consists of a phone interview and a technical interview. In my opinion, with the skill level Google is looking for, the interview is fair and accurately tests the ability of a candidate. I imagine the interview for full-time positions is harder, but as an intern, I felt that it was the right amount of difficulty and complexity.
there is no online assessment, very simple phone call, then two technicals. technicals are not difficult by any means. then you get put into team matching, after a couple months
