Why is it important to analyse how many of your visitors are looking for jobs on their mobiles as opposed to their desktop? Google has got a reputation for asking brain-teasers that force candidates to show how they act under pressure.
The majority of the interview questions asked to candidates require them to think broadly and quantitatively, and also test the way they tackle problems on the spot.
While Google switches up its questions over time, to stop potential candidates from ‘rehearsing’ answers, career website Glassdoor has provided a glimpse of the types of puzzles that the company have asked in the past.
Google don’t set all their tricky questions to be brain teasers – some are simple yet difficult to answer in a concise way so that the interviewers can discover the candidate’s communication skills.
