What most excites you about your new job?

Being a part of the journey of growing Google in Canada.

Where were you previously?

I was at Deloitte, on their Risk Advisory section. Then a recruiter from Google reached out to me.

What was your preparation strategy?

I started out watching a lot of YouTube videos, mainly by Google employees and recruiters and also quite a few system design videos. I also read blogs, such as Try Exponent. Then I started practicing with the example questions on the IGotAnOffer blog articles and once I was feeling more prepared, I did some mock interviewing, first with peers and then with a coach. The feedback from that was a massive help.

What was the hardest part of the whole interview process?

Probably my lack of practice, and getting into the right mindset for interviewing.

What advice would you give to other candidates?

Mock interviews are the best thing you can do to prepare.
