Entrevista
Worst interview ever. Extremely rude and arrogant people. No respect at all for the people they are interviewing. One of the worst onsite ever.
Initially there was a phone interview with the hiring manager . He explained the team and the job. After some delay he arranged for a phone technical interview with one of the engineers.
The phone interview required collaborative coding (collabedit). 2 Basic Data-structure CS questions.
After not receiving a answer for a week i emailed the hiring manager and he said some recruiter will contact me for the next steps.
After another week the onsite was scheduled. Went there. Had a series of interviews with extremely rude people and the most weirdest of CS questions. I get the idea of asking CS questions related to the field. Basic Datastructure knowledge i feel is necessary as well but there is a line between asking good reasonable CS data structure questions and something old school and irrelevant( electrical engineering questions like signals ? waves ? ), even bit masking questions(which i solved) but the interviewer wanted a one line answer which had a worse time complexity than the solution i gave. Google interviews are tough but atleast they ask sensible questions and are nice enough to point you in the right direction/give some hint/acknowledge that sometimes there can be a false negative in interviews.
The only good thing was probably the food .
First interview was algorithms in my case using priority queue (in this part I was allowed to use internet).
Next part was divided into 4 interviews: behavioral, with hiring manager, design (design elevator system) and live coding algorithm.
It's nice that they provide feedback from the interview.
In the end I didn't get an offer because according to them I lacked experience, even though according to feedback all my interviews went well. I feel they wasted my time because I didnt apply for this position, they contacted me on linked in.

5 rounds of algorithms and data structures, retrospective and behavioral questions to assess culture fit. I did well on the retrospective but did not do good in other rounds. It is a fairly detailed process.
very long and tedious, too many stages and communication was good but not always clear, i wish it was more streamlined and clear. Not the best or the worse i must say,.
