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
- When should I take the date, how much gap should I take to prepare?
- What to expect during the interview?
- 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:
- The question (+ its requirements) was shown on Google Docs and it was not difficult but had some corner cases.
- 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.
- I was interacting with the recruiter and was telling me what I am going to do. What can be done to improve the code.
- How to test this code? which inputs will you give.
My takes
- Think out loud
- Interact with the Interviewer
- Ask questions
- Know your programming language well and its collections/templates library. Know where to use which data structure.
- Write a working code first and later optimize it. If you cannot optimize, tell interviewer how you can improve the code.
Regards,
B.
