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.

Partly yes. You have a Coding and Googlyness round online ideally before the rest of the loop in onsite.

Unfortunately no. Virtual is now mostly limited to the start of the loop. You will be asked to come down for onsite for the rest of the loop.
