Onsite Round 4 (Googlyness)
This Round mainly focuses on the behavioural aspects of the candidate. some questions that I faced in this round are below:
This Round -
Tell me about yourself
-
Suppose you have a given requirement to build a system. but the requirement is not fully complete from product. How do you approach building that
-
What challenges did you face when you wanted to extend an existing system
-
How did you define success matrix for your product
-
If the manager asking you some wrong demand? how will you respond to that? Example if he/she is saying to complete the task with very tight deadline? to work overnight? how will you respond to that?
-
What was the most challenging project in your career? What was the learnings from the project also? Technical Learnings and non technical learnings also
-
Suppose In Google Photos. we gave you the task to train a model to identify if in a picture is a person smiling or not? What type of data would you need to train the model? I mean what kind of pictures you require for that?
That was all about the interview Experience, I was not selected by the hiring committee. Overall the experience was good, the interviewers were very polite and helpful. except one (In Round 2). she was not discussing anything. otherwise all the remaining interviewers were very active and helpful during the interview.
