Entrevista
I was a Software Engineering Intern the previous summer. I chose to convert to an Associate Product Manager for full-time.
They made me jump through many hoops. 2 phone interviews, 2 onsite interviews, lunch, a 3 page essay and a final interview with Brian Rakowski (VP of Android in charge of the APM program). There are even more interviews if you're not converting from an internship.

Questions spanned estimation, analytical and product. Gave me the same vibe as consulting interviews in the context of tech. Some sample questions (not asked in my interview but same flavor):
- Estimate the revenue of XYZ company
- Estimate the bandwidth needed if you built an optical fiber connection to a colony on Mars
- Here's a data set. Something changed and here's the new data set. Explain what happened.
- How would you improve XYZ Google product
- What's your favorite product? How can you improve it?
- How would you got about building a startup that does XYZ
- Given unlimited resources, how you fix XYZ company
- What's wrong with XYZ? If you were the CEO, how would you fix it?

They asked what my favorite product was and how I would make it better. The entire interview was mostly centered around the product that I chose and my thinking about it.
5 interviews on-site with different team members.
It was hard to go from a friendly office tour to a deeply technical CS question first thing in the morning! However, it got easier after the first question and everyone was very friendly.
PS- The office is very fun too.
