Google Interview Process
1. Round 1 - They asked me basic questions like how would I convince someone for advertising, online advertising, Google Adwords - Google Search Network, Google Display Network, CPC, CPM, CPA, Location Targeting, Radius Targeting, Language setting, Keywords, Negative Keywords, Placements, Quality Score, Online Auction, etc., why Google, why Account Optimizer, why do I want to switch, etc.
2. Round 2 - They made me design 4 different online ad campaigns for a startup and a well established firm - for a brand that whose goal is to have more sales and for a brand that just wants more web traffic and for a brand that just wants awareness, asked me in detail about my work at Mu Sigma and CrazyEngineers.com, what have I learnt at both the places, my interests and hobbies, challenges for Google, why should they hire me, etc.
3. Round 3 - They asked me business questions, case studies - how to convince a client, how to prioritize clients, case scenario about what would I do if I had a conflict with manager, how would I manage time in another scenario, how would I get my targets completed, my biggest achievement, challenge, failure, strength and weakness, how would I approach a problem, examples of my leadership qualities, etc. All the rounds were competency based in which I had back my answers with examples.
I hope this would help you in some way or the other. You can message me on CE if you have any other questions, or if you want me to refer you for any of the job openings. 😀
Please feel free to reach out.
