I applied online. I interviewed at Google (New York, NY) in June 2023
Interview
It was made of behavioral questions. The interviewers were pretty laid back, and it was fun to talk with them during the interview. They told me not to rush with questions. It was a very human interview. Unfortunately, I was not offered a job, and they mentioned the answer would take two weeks, but it took two months. I felt a little disrespected by that, but the process was professional overall.

Question 1
What questions would you ask when doing UX research?
I did one round of a recruiter interview and moved on to a portfolio review. The recruiter interview was just walking me through the interview process, which I'm going thru and the portfolio interview was with the hiring manager.

Question 1
Tell me about a time when you collaborated with engineers
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Google in Nov 2025
Interview
I was moved along the process really fast, the only slowdown I experienced was with the scheduling team (def not the most efficient or responsive, so be ready to be patient with them)
That said, the hiring team and recruiters were really good at keeping things moving. I heard back the morning of the next working day after my initial hiring manager call, and was notified that I was moving to the offer stage less than 20 hours after completing my final round.
Overall, a fast, well-run interview process once the interviews themselves started.
The interview process was very pleasant. I had the opportunity to meet with a few team members, and the questions asked were insightful. They really took the time to understand my background, and I felt that the interviewers were genuinely interested in my experience and how it aligned with the team's needs. The process was smooth, and they provided great feedback along the way.
