Behavioral interview at Google?
The recruiter said for the onsite I'd have 4 coding interviews and 1 behavioral interview. What should I expect at the behavioral interview? (For SWE role)
What is something I can learn from you if I went Into your browsing history? Time you convinced a difficult colleague Biggest failure / disappointment / fuk up Favorite Google product and why and how to improve it Why gewgle
Lol @ browsing history question
You'd learn there's nothing there because I do all my dirty deeds in Incognito Mode. I convinced a difficult colleague to give hotpot a chance for lunch and we have been getting hotpot once or twice a month since. Biggest failure: Not solving LC hard in under 30 minutes when it mattered most. Favorite Google product: Google Reader, because it was a good way to manage my RSS feeds you assholes. You can improve it by bringing it back dammit. Because Blind says so.
"Tell me about a time when..." put a situation here.. I'd suggest thinking about cases when you made tough choices, had argument, helped others etc.
Damn I wish I had a behavioural round when I interviewed
Why? It doesn't give you extra points, it just yet another filter.
It's likely just to judge how you work well in teams. Expect questions about disagreements, criticism, communication styles, etc
