Apparently, scoring an interview with Google—and making all the way
to final stages of the evaluation process—is enough to get some
attention online. That’s what happened to erstwhile blogger Peteris
Krumins, who summed up the challenging telephone and in-person
questions and relatively posh life as a Google applicant like with “It
was also nice that Google paid for my trip, hotel, cab and food. I had
zero expenses!” and:
Overall the Google interviews were pure fun for me. The
interview questions were technical but not very challenging or
difficult.
Thanks for the opportunity Google!
Looks like Mr. Krumins didn’t get the job, being told that he needed
more experience for such a “mission-critical” position. But his
straightforward and clear narration is very worth the read for any
Google fans out there, as it provides a sneak peek into a small facet
of the company’s operations. At the very least, we know Google’s
willing to pay for the Latvian’s round-trip, lodging and food while he
was on-site! Also, the comments, divided between haters, encouragers,
and neutral opiners, is also worth some attention.
