I'll admit a horrible secret for you all: I've done some interviewing for my job at Google, and there were a few times where a candidate was explaining some computer science concept that I had forgotten about or never gotten around to learning at university, and I just had to nod my head as I opened up another tab to Google what they were trying to do. People might get intimidated by interviewers, but you can become one after only being at the company for a year, just barely after they were in the candidate position themselves.
I was in your shoes 2 years ago. During my first few interviews I did I was almost as nervous as the candidates, but it's not like you can just let them know that.
Googled "Zak Fahey + linkedin + google" immediately 😂😂

Never!
Hey man I've been watching your account for a while now and it's so helpful! I'm currently a high school senior planning on majoring in computer science and channels like yours are so appreciated :) You inspire me to keep doing what I'm doing right now, so thanks!!
Great content. As one who is in progress with the interview process, I really value that google looks internally at their own process and doesn’t assume that any minor mishap is completely the fault/result of the candidate like many other places do. They def seem to consider all things as candidates progress through the process. 👍🏼
Thank you Clement. I always enjoy your content. Truly Inspiring.
Watching the video coincided with my reading of the book " cracking the coding interview 6th edition "
(I would recommend reading a book to any programmer who wants to develop his skills)
Thanks, Clement for your time!
Very insightful video man! Good work!
Thank you!! I have an interview at Amazon soon and this gave me whole lotta confidence, you're the goat 🐐
You got this! GL
Best of luck! I hope you get the offer!
Thank you guys ❤
@@cannepal10 so ?
I like the new look, very fresh!
An interesting video, it would be also fun to hear you talking about how the actual interviews go. Are most candidates terrible, how does an outstanding interview look like? Any funny stories that happened during the interview?
Thanks for this Clement. Made me feel a lot better about my upcoming interview 🙌
Hey Clem! Love your videos. I wanted to ask, how do you think interviewers typically weight an assessment between behavioral vs technical ability? 50/50? 30/70?
I’m digging the stache 😎
My girlfriend isn't 😬I'll show her this comment.
@@clem Thanks. This video helped me to break down an confusion between interviewer and candidate.
All spike goes up😁.
it exists
I love your videos man, you are soooooo helpful!
This was very helpful. Thank you so much!
Clèment you should too write a book on Technical Interviews like - "Cracking The Coding Interview" , describing all your technical Interview experiences 🔥
Hi clement i was curious about the behavioral interview. Is this a separate class that you have to take to conduct these types of interviews? Or can you just schedule that you’d like to do a behavioral interview? Really curious how this works. entering college this fall, so without a doubt in time i will be getting algo expert to prepare for internships. :) love your channel, keep up the great work
Thanks A Lot I Was Really Confused In This Topic.
Hey, Clement I tried Algoexpert it's super amazing I recommend others to use it
That's awesome to hear!
I just solved the free easy task and I felt powerful! :D :D
Nice video. I have a question. Does the feedback of shadow interviewer, carry weightage for the interview result?
I think I remember you saying in a different video that Google offers several different classes that you can take (e.g. a Machine Learning class). Is the interviewing class you talked about in this video done in a similar format to those?
Thanks for such deep insights about Google Interview Process. :) Love from India
please make a video on what is a lunch interview and what is evaluated in that.
Thanks Clem, great video. Could we have an annex one on the same topic but for behavioral questions ?
I made a video about Behavioral Interviews a while back; you can watch it here! th-cam.com/video/6rW01g6Obwk/w-d-xo.html
Hey Clement can you Plss make curated List of Leet Code Questions
Clement is ❤️
Hi Clem,
How can I have a lifetime subscription on AlgoExpert?
I've already subscribed for everything of yours(TH-cam, LinkedIn, Algo/SystemExpert, etc), yet I can't rest.
I really love everything you do.
I wish to have a one on one chat with you one day.
Wish you share funny Google interview moments in the future
Thanks Sir for making informative videos always🖤

Hi clement, i have a question, is there any limit to the number of jobs we can apply for at Google in a year?, because I have seen in some companies they say you cannot apply more than 3 times for a position in a year, Facebook has that. Does Google have anything similar to that. Would really like to know your thoughts and view on it.
Hey man. Your the best. Hope I'll be a software engineer at google one day.
Youll get there broo!
@Saavya Awasthi Thanks man. I won't give up.
WHAT A BEARD!

Unfortunately, some Google interviewers tend to start the interview in a very "cold" way. Like... "ok, if you're ready we can start" - and that's it. Question. Go! One of them did not even tell me his name, and when I asked for it he said: "Oh, ok. I thought it is written in google meet" (which replaces hangouts, btw). like... come on. When I was interviewing I always spent the first 30-60 seconds doing some chit-chat with the candidate, on anything in the world that is not related to the interview just to make them feel more comfortable. I think it's a must.
"10x engineer" lol
15:30 "Maybe I'll put hire for comedy"
Lmaoo 🤣🤣🤣
nice video man !!!
Awesome video!
hii! So I have a STEP technical interview coming up, and I'm a little nervous. I'm about to purchase your practice package! I'm also in a software development BootCamp and I was wondering how would I mention this? Or should I even mention this. I just thought it would be nice to know that I'll be learning so much more before the start of the internship
hey clement , can you say what knowledge do we need to get hired in tech company, how I can be sure that my knowledge fits the company, I mean we know programming, how to code , but there are always sth that we don't know like some hidden layers of some programming language like python or javascript or c or whatever how we can make sure about it?
" Interviewers are on your side", really motivating
does the hiring decision depends on other candidates performance who is currently interviewing?
I cam from service based and consulting background. I have a question, What if someone is not good at data structures and algorithms but know how to implement a algorithms based on business needs. In my day to day life as a engineer, I design, develop and implement fully distributed products for my clients in Deloitte using variety of frameworks. What path do you suggest to get into FANG.
WOW clement looks like wizard 😁🤣👌🙌
You are bestest google employee ❤️
Yes he is far far better than my friend who got into Google and not revealing how the process was...
Great video!
So if I were disclose the fact that I got prepared using algoexpert, would the intervirewer give me a much harder questions?
Is it considered bad when help is provided by Interviewer? Does that impact the result of the interview or hiring committee?
I'll apply to Google if Clement promises to be my interviewer, love this guy!
😅Well I'm no longer there, but I can be your interviewer in spirit!
@@clem I wish you were! Btw your trim is on point.
How does this differ between onsite vs phone interviews? Do phone interviews go through the hiring committee? E.g. my recruiter told me I need to do a second phone interview.
I'm just starting my software engineer course in September. I've coding a bit in my grade 10 class but that's about it. Any tips to help me?
Watching in 2x and Clement looks so funny 😂😂
2x isthe only way to watch him lol
@@Aripoma 😂
Great intro
Facial hair looks p good on clement
i would love to have a simple algorith interview T.T
clement finally changed his t'shirt
so make sure you "thrive under ambiguity" but also "ask clarifying questions"?
Imagine being the teacher that teaches the software engineers to become interviewers ( or atleast get them to have an idea on how it s done )
YOOOO..... new look suits you my guy!
Ayyyy
Waiting for the AlgoExpert T-SHIRT.
2:27 - Yes it is 6 months, but interestingly for Cloud PA it's 3 months.
Clement is slowly going to turn into Ed Norton from “The 25th Hour”
Can you make a video about how much money you need to live in nyc? How much of your google/facebook monthly salary went into rent and taxes. Also a video about react vs angular
I just made a spending video with my google salary
legend
nice!
Hi clément, since you have a math background and programmation experiences, did you ever consider a machine learning engineer or data scientist position? -> new vid idea 💡👀
What percentage of candidates that make it to HC get approved?
What if the candidate has a Stuttering problem? Will, it matters in the interview?
I just interviewed with google this week. It was intense. I’m not confident in the outcome.
i interviewed by Google, can you please help me with system design interview , 'you are part of FINTECH and you have an account with CITI bank and transfer the amount to the bank.' position was partner engineer for GPAY
Clement when you said "wait" I thought that you are going to shave your beard.
Lol never shave the beard
Do you get paid an extra for conducting interviews?
👌🏼🌟🙌🏽💪🏼
Can a recruiter reject a candidate based on interviewers' feedback?
Never been this early.. I know I am still late 😅
At this point, I need to intern and work at Google bc the algorithm is pushing google content for me!!!
Do it more google content on my channel
I noticed the Google interviewers are unusually quiet during the interview and give no feedback on our thought process. Is this deliberate? @clement
I think this really depends on the interviewer. I think that I tend to be a little bit more vocal than some.
Your accent comes out when you say Facebook
What accent? 👀
@@clem French
Is he french? Lol
@@AaronandAsh He is french - american
@@andreii1610 says who
I want to work for google
Sir plz recomend me
Completed python and data science
Currently learning DSA
Nice Intro bro..
I interviewed at Google at both Tribeca and Mountain View. Both had funny stories.
For Mountain View, they flew me out from NYC, brought me into a huge room with equally large video screen. I was then interviewed via video conference from a software engineer from NYC. For Tribeca, they had me interview with 4 foreign male software developers wearing t-shirts. After that a nice fashionably dressed lady walked in; I assumed it was HR so I thanked her for the opportunity to interview at Google and started to gather my stuff. She was my 5th technical interviewer.
You should announce another online software engineer project contest where winners get opportunity to get interview chance in big techs
Its a new year cmon
Monthly access to algoexpert when?
Where is algogirl? We are missing her :(
2:40 Eligible 🤣🤣😂😂
Make on "interviewee"
Just out of curiosity, after you become a google interviewer do you get paid more or a bonus?
Anyone at google can be an interviewer
What Aaron said--there's no bonus or raise from being an interviewer. It's an expected (although not 100% mandatory) part of a Google SWE's job.
There's no direct compensation, but it looks good on performance reviews, so there's definitely good incentive to try and do it.
how many of how many people you interviewed got hired
Hmmm good question
I am just kinda curious: is it actually allowed to share that type of information with others? I thought these are rather company's secrets
It's not like he's providing damaging information to Google. Gayle did the same with Cracking the code interview, which i think helped Google. Plus, it's not like he's working for them right now.
why am i watching when I don't even code lol :)))
It's about time. TH-cam is trying to channel your inner coder.
Yes, the almighty TH-cam algorithm is trying to tell you that it's time for you to learn how to code!
@@clem lol 😆
@@clem :))) 👍
22:47: "Clearly this person didn't use AlgoExprt. um but yeah, that's a good thing." ;)
How it's like to be awesome? (brilliancy interview secrets)
Nice👨🏻
0:04 I thought you will come back after shaving beard 😅😅
