Anonymous User

Hi All,

I have been told by my recruiter that my telephonic interview was good enough for an onsite interview at Google as Engineering Manager. I have not yet taken interview dates, just want to ask opinion of other leetcoders

  1. When should I take the date, how much gap should I take to prepare?
  2. What to expect during the interview?
  3. How to prepare it? Especially system deisgn and behavioral part.

Edit:
Someone asked about my telephonic interview experience. I will not tell the questions been asked but will give you broad idea how I tackled the questions.

Part 1:
Leadership Questions:
General leadership questions about handling team members and projects.

Part 2:
Programming:

  1. The question (+ its requirements) was shown on Google Docs and it was not difficult but had some corner cases.
  2. I was able to write the code in short time and handle all the requirements mentioned in the short time BUT was not able to solve all the corner cases.
  3. I was interacting with the recruiter and was telling me what I am going to do. What can be done to improve the code.
  4. How to test this code? which inputs will you give.

My takes

  1. Think out loud
  2. Interact with the Interviewer
  3. Ask questions
  4. Know your programming language well and its collections/templates library. Know where to use which data structure.
  5. Write a working code first and later optimize it. If you cannot optimize, tell interviewer how you can improve the code.

Regards,
B.
