hmmm.... after a long time in depression.. am ready to post something here..
now i have to change my mind once again on google as 'after all google' from 'the great google'.. it does happens when things are going not well for you.
after a week after my phone interview i received phone call from google girl asking me for dates.. :D
ha ha ha... she asked me dates for the onsite interviews. :)
i asked her to call me next day.. just giving the impression that i am a busy person.. :P
i gave couple of dates.. and she confirmed with the interviewers and asked me to come on thursday..
then I started preparing for the interveiw. i searched for all the help on the net but i found lot of useless stuff..
- on the interview day..
it was raining very heavily.. and my interviews were scheduled in the evening. i was waiting for the rain to stop but it didn't.
i started dressing up.. i was thinking of wearing formals (as we do in campus interviews :D).. but it was raining and anyhow i am going to get wet.. so i weared t-shirt, jeans.. with rain jacket on..
i reached google office with wet dress.. i could cover only my shirt with jacket.. i reached one hour early there.. i called up that girl and she said 'u came soo early' and asked me to wait..
i waited for an hour by looking at the different screens in the hall playing google workplace videos and news..
after one hour that girl came out and took me into a cabin.. she gave me NDA form and i signed on it..
now, the interviewer came into the cabin..
we started with mutual introductions...
after everything went very well in the phone interview, i was thinking same kind of question will be asked in the onsite interview as well... but quite contradictorily they asked someother thing, which i am scared about.. "permutations and combinations'
he asked me a question..
i didn't have any clue about the solution.. i said ask me another question..
this time little easy question and i was able to answer that after working for about half an hour.. :D
then he said we are done..
he left the cabin and another interviewer came in..
this time no different story...
again the bloody permutations and combinations subject..
he asked me a question...
i tried for sometime and i said i don't have any clue..
he asked me another question..
and this time technical one..
so.. i didn't have any problem and i wrote the algorithm quickly...
then he started to ask me to trace it with different cases..
and everything was perfect...
he was o.k with the solution..
then he said.. 'o.k giribabu, i am done with my questions'
again only two questions...
now i was searching for that hr girl who took me inside.. i asked another girl nearby and she said i dont know..
i called her on mobile and she came. asked me about the interview and how it went..
i said 'it was good'...
we both came to the reception and she said 'we will get back to you withinn a week' and left.
now the same story.... of course i already knew the outcome..
after one week i got the email.. '"we regret to inform you... "
