Entrevista
From very beginning process started out a bit messy as recruiters somehow switched my position to different one. In the end they managed to sort it out with my preparing for different position half of my "preparation time".
Interview itself didn't last very long which I took as a bad sign. Interviewer was asking me questions based on what he saw on the resume, thus most of the questions were Linux and Networking. From how TCP/IP work, to what's a three way handsake to inodes and symbolic/hard links.
However, as some interviews suggest interviewer didn't lead me to find an answer even when I didn't have one. Unfortunately for me whole process was based on whether you knew the question or not, with little or none involvement from the interviewer regarding my answers.
Couple of days later I got an email that we won't be continuing the process.

While explaining differences between TCP and UDP, when I mentioned that UDP is more convenient for video streaming websites as video will keep streaming even if packages get dropped. Interviewer asked me isn't that the opposite of what we want as this could hamper the video quality.

The interview process started with a quick phone chat with a recruiter about my background and why I was interested in Google. After that, I had a technical interview where they asked a mix of system design and troubleshooting questions. mostly focused on Linux, networking, and automation. Then there were a couple of panel interviews with engineers who wanted to see how I think through problems and work with others. The last step was a call with the hiring manager, which was more about culture fit and what kind of projects I’d enjoy. Overall, it was pretty organized but also challenging. they expect you to explain your thought process clearly.
