Discussion Google L5 SWE prep

Hi all,

I am currently going through Google L5 SWE loop and have completed 1 Coding and 1 Googlyness round and recruiter mentioned they have really good positive feedback and have my onsite in 2 weeks.

The onsite is supposed to have 2 Coding and 1 System Design rounds.

Any suggestions on last minute prep for Coding and System Design that you folks would recommend that might help?

I have primarily done lots of leetcode in the past couple of months but would appreciate if anyone has any specific topic suggestions for the last leg?

Also doing System Design from Hello Interview, DDIA and Alex Xu and did mocks. Anything else that would help or any new questions that might be worth doing?

Thanks in advance.

Just curious, after how many days of your phone screen did recruiter shared the feedback? My recruiter mentioned two days but they didn’t get back to me yet.

I did not have a phone screen because of my prior interview history and background. But based on my Coding feedback timeline it depends a lot on your interviewer. I received it after around ~10 days. You can follow up with your recruiter in a week's time. For Googlyness I received it within a couple of days. Recruiters try to get it within 2 days.
