Google campus interviews require strong command of graphs (BFS, DFS, Dijkstra, topological sort), dynamic programming (memoisation and tabulation), trees (BST, balanced trees, segment trees), and string algorithms (KMP, Z-algorithm). Being able to optimise a brute force solution to O(n log n) or better under time pressure is table stakes. Most successful candidates have solved 300+ LeetCode problems including a significant portion at hard difficulty.
The Googleyness round evaluates whether you would thrive in Google's culture: comfort with ambiguity, intellectual humility, collaborative problem-solving, and genuine curiosity. Interviewers often ask about projects where you failed, how you handled disagreement with a team member, or what you would do in a specific ambiguous situation. There are no right answers - the interviewer is assessing your reasoning and self-awareness.
