I stopped thinking about google until 2 weeks ago after i passed HC. Now it's the only thing on my mind and I'm doing practically nothing at work

Hey atleast u got that free salary while you wait, how were the interview questions difficulty wise? And what is your leetcode question split?

Lol you dont get any kind of salary from google. Honestly my interview felt pretty easy. I didnt do much LC, maybe 5-10 questions total. I mostly just used EPI

1) June on-site 2/3) Had many interviews for MTV office, but I decided to go for Zurich or London 4) 3 YOE / no system design 5) Application “on-hold”. Constantly communicating with him. At least he is not ghosting me 6) after so much time preparing what would you think? The last mile is definitely the worst part. My work performance dropped to zero. And it’s super annoying applying for other companies.
