Solicité el puesto a través de un captador. El proceso duró 4 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Google (Tel Aviv)
Entrevista
The interview process was containing several parts:
1. Phone screening with HR.
2. General Linux interview with one of the team members.
3. Live coding interview.
4. Troubleshooting interview.
5. System design interview.
There was an option to choose how to make 2 rounds of 2 hourly interview or 1 round of 4 hour inverview. I decided 2 rounds.
Google gives time to prepare to the interview, average is 2 weeks, so I took 2 weeks, however now I understand that it would be better to take 1 month.
The live coding interview question was: find mostly repeated words in the text file, list them, sort and show number of repeatings.
The system design was to design some system of getting reports and saving them. It was my first system design interview, so I didn't ask basic questions: how many users, how much space each file or record, how many per hour and so on.

The interview lasted 45 minutes and was conducted one-on-one. I was required to walk through my thought process before coding and then implement an optimized solution with a focus on time complexity.
