23. Interview

24. • Interviews can be of different types. The usual types are structured,
unstructured, mixed, behavioral and stress producing.
• Structured Interview- A predetermined checklist of questions,
usually asked of all applicants. Used especially when dealing with a
large no. of candidates.
• Unstructured Interview: Questions are formed during the course of
an interview. Used when the interviewer tries to probe into the
personal details of the candidate to analyze whether they are fit for
the job or not.
• Mixed Interview- Combination of both structured and unstructured
questions, which resembles what is usually done in practice.

25. • Behavioral Interview: probes much deeper than traditional
interviewing techniques. You should prepare by thinking
of specific examples that demonstrate your competence
in core behaviors such as teamwork, problem-solving,
communication, creativity, flexibility and organizational skills.
• Stress Interview- objective of a stress interview is to check the
candidates performance under stress.
• Group Interview
• Panel Interview
• In-depth Interview

26. Halo effect
• The halo effect or halo error is a cognitive bias in which
one's judgments of a person’s character can be
influenced by one's overall impression of him or her. It
can be found in a range of situations from the courtroom
to the classroom and in everyday interactions. The halo
effect was given its name by psychologist Edward
Thorndike

27. Contd……
• The "halo" effect occurs when an interviewer allows one
strong point about the candidate to overshadow or have
an effect on everything else. For instance, knowing
someone went to a particular university might be looked
upon favorably. Everything the applicant says during the
interview is seen in this light. ("Well, she left out an
important part of the answer to that question, but, she
must know it, she went to Harvard University). The
"horn" effect is just the opposite - allowing one weak
point to influence everything else.

28. Hiring Process: what to expect
@ Google
• How We Interview
• At Google, every candidate goes through both
manager and peer interviews. While conventional
interviews normally have a single hiring manager make
or break a hiring decision, Google values both peer and
manager feedback. In fact, candidates also interview
with at least one Googler who works in a completely
different department to ensure that we’re hiring
someone who is a great fit for the company overall.

29. • Here are some general tips to follow as you prepare for
your interview:
• Know what interests you about Google and why you’ve
applied.
• Get to know Google’s products and services. Research our
competitors.
• If you are interviewing for a software engineering or
technical role, be ready to answer high-level technical
questions on data-structures and algorithms. We would like
you to code up your answers on boards with our engineers.

30. • Familiarize yourself with the job description you are
interested in.
• If you are interviewing for a software engineering role
then you may first want to visit the
websitewww.topcoder.com. Please launch the “Arena”
widget and go to the practice rooms where you can solve
problems in the first and second division.
• Make sure that you substantiate anything your
CV/resume says – for instance, if you list Java or Haskell
as your key programming language, questions about this
are fair game and may be asked of you.

in the induction process, including the new starter.
