Google interview (end to end). Real questions I got from my friend who recently cracked Google.
1. Recruiter screen (15–20 min)
“Why Google?”
“Current comp, expectations, relocation willingness?”
2. Phone screen 1 – Coding (45–60 min)
- “Design TinyURL.” (hashing + base62 + collision handling)
- “Find median from data stream.” (two heaps)
Follow ups: handle duplicates, negatives, space optimization
3. Phone screen 2 – Coding (45–60 min)
- “Longest substring without repeating characters.” (sliding window)
- “Serialize and deserialize binary tree.” (preorder + null markers)
Follow ups: time/space, edge cases (empty tree, single node)
4. Onsite – Coding Round 1 (45 min)
- “Word break II.” (DP + backtracking)
Follow ups: optimize space, return all valid sentences
5. Onsite – Coding Round 2 (45 min)
- “Alien dictionary.” (topological sort + graph)
Follow ups: cycle detection, multiple valid orders
6. Onsite – System design (45 min)
“Design YouTube.”
Covered:
- video upload/download (chunking, resumable, GCS)
- recommendation (collaborative filtering + content-based)
- search (inverted index, ranking, autocomplete)
- scale (1B+ DAU, hot videos, CDN, sharding)
- consistency vs availability for views/counts
- transcoding pipeline, thumbnails, notifications
7. Onsite – Behavioral / Googliness (45 min)
“Tell me about a time you disagreed with a senior engineer.”
“How did you handle a tight deadline with quality tradeoffs?”
“What’s the hardest bug you debugged in production?”
So if you’re prepping: nail clean, optimal code under time pressure & explain tradeoffs verbally. Google loves candidates who think aloud clearly and show “Googleyness” (ownership & humility).

Atlassian interview (end to end). Real questions I got. 1. Recruiter screen (20 min) “Why Atlassian?” “What’s your notice period, location, comp?” 2. DS/Algo (60 min) - “Given an array, find the shortest subarray with sum ≥ K.” (sliding window + prefix) - “Design an LRU cache.” (HashMap + doubly linked list) - Follow ups: time, space, edge cases, tests 3. Coding round 2 (60 min) - “Merge intervals, return non overlapping result.” - “Top K frequent elements.” - Follow ups: complexity, alternative approaches, input constraints 4. System design (90 min) “Design a Jira like issue tracking system.” Covered: - data model (Project, Issue, Comment, Status, Assignee) - APIs (create/update/search) - search (filters, pagination, indexes, Elastic) - scale numbers (QPS, storage), hot partitions - consistency (status transitions), idempotency - async work (notifications, webhooks), retries, DLQ - caching, rate limits, audit log - observability (SLOs, traces) 5. Hiring manager (45 min) “Biggest project you owned end to end?” “Tell me about a prod incident you caused.” “How do you handle disagreements in design reviews?” “What would your ex manager say you need to improve?” So if you’re prepping: don’t just grind LeetCode. Be sharp on tradeoffs, failure modes, and how you debug under pressure.

Detachment isn't about caring less; it’s about releasing the need for others to react as you would. Understand that a different response (or no response at all) is a neutral event, not a personal slight.
