The interview process for the Google Public Policy Fellowship was pretty smooth and had great panelists. The application process was a bit different but turned out to be quick.

So the interview process had three rounds. First I talked to the supervisor, then I met with some of my future team colleagues. Lastly, I had a final interview with a senior leader.

Behavioral Technical Case
So I had a two round interview process. First was a background interview with a senior research analyst where they asked about my past research experience and why I was interested in the job. Then, before the second round, I had to do a take-home assignment involving two policy reform analyses, including some data work. The second round was with the directors and focused on a deep dive into that take-home assignment. They asked pretty detailed questions, so you should really read whatever materials they send you carefully and be ready to talk about your answers and what you might have done differently. The interviews themselves were fine, but I'm giving it a negative rating because they ghosted me for months after, even after I met with three people. It's really rude to make candidates do work on their own time for multiple interview rounds and then not even send a rejection.
