Google Ux Designer Interview Questions
& Process

I had a pleasant time interviewing with everyone but unfortunately their team matching process is terrible. I got matched to 2 different teams and both times the interviewer did not follow the interview format I was told about. Since I already passed all of the technical and behavioral interviews, I was told that the team matching interview would be more of a conversation where I can ask more questions about the team. Instead, both times the interviewer asked me technical questions and had me come up with research study plans on the spot. This is usually not a problem for most interviews but when you’re explicitly told that you will not have to do that, it creates a poor experience.

This job interview was a really amazing experience for me. From beginning to end, the atmosphere stayed warm and welcoming. The team made me feel truly valued and wanted, which really stood out from other interviews I’ve been to. Their style was professional but also personal, with a great balance between understanding my qualifications and having an engaging conversation. What impressed me most was how they tried to understand me not just as a candidate, but as a person. They asked thoughtful questions and seemed honestly interested in my experiences and goals. It didn’t feel like just an evaluation—it felt more like a mutual exploration of whether we’d be a good fit for each other. I also liked how transparent and open they were about the role and the company culture. It gave me a clear idea of what to expect and helped me picture myself as part of their team. The respect and enthusiasm they showed made the whole process enjoyable instead of stressful. Overall, this experience left a really strong positive impression on me. I’d definitely go through a job interview with this company again, no hesitation. It’s rare to feel this uplifted and inspired after an interview, but they really made it happen!

I informed my graduation date in the applicant's questionnaire. Then the recruiter sent me an email to schedule an interview. After we scheduled the interview, I started preparing. Hours before the interview he sends an email cancelling, saying it was a mistake scheduling an interview with me because my graduation date was incompatible with the internship requirements. I answered his email questioning his decision to exclude me from the process, arguing that I had informed from the beginning my graduation date and made clear in the questionnaires I answered after receiving the emails moving forward with my application that I was graduating and was following for a MBA program. I sent him a print of one of their questionnaires assuring that it wouldn't be a problem if I was in between degrees. He said he didn't know that was the case so we could schedule the interview again. However, during the interview, I didn't feel like I was in an interview. He did most of the talking and I barely spoke. His tone was very arrogant and I felt like he was embarrassed by his mistake and kept implying that I should drop out from the selection process. I said I didn't want to drop out, and that I was going to have a written confirmation of the MBA in a few weeks to show him. He said I would still have a fair shot if that was the case, but a few days later I received an email saying I was not selected. I don't understand, if I was unqualified for the job or my graduation date was incompatible or being in between degrees was such a problem, why did he schedule a new interview with me? He was not even an official googler, his email signature was Randstad Sourceright Supporting Google, implying it was an outsource recruiting agency.
