J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 3 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez Google (Mountain View, CA) en oct. 2018
Entretien
First step was a recruiter reaching out, then a phone conversation to feel out my interest.
Then had a scheduled 45 minute phone interview with another Product Manager. He asked product related questions/hyportheticals about building a few products or as a CEO of a company etc.
Then waited a week or so for the feedback. If it goes well, then they setup an on-site interview. They flew me up for an all day interview process (they covered all costs).
You have five 45 minute interviews: Four with Product Managers and One with an Engineer. I had one cancel so I had Four total. In between the interviews, you have lunch on campus with one Product Manager.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
I can't really discuss specific questions, but the most important thing is to make sure you frame all situations through the lens of Product frameworks. I didn't. I defaulted to the way I usually solve problems, but that worked against me as they weight frameworks heavily.

Entretien
Very self-driven, first of multiple rounds, where I had to take the initiative to arrive at the problem, constraints, approach, solutions, tradeoffs and reasoning behind it in a matter of 30 minutes.

Entretien
You would have to do a hiring assessment first, then a recruiter screening follows. First round interview with the hiring manager. Majorly product sense and product improvement. The questions were not direct though.
Overall a lot of steps to the interview process. Talked to different people and had opportunities to ask questions. Many different stages which made it a lengthy process overall. Wasn't too bad.
