As a Front End SWE, you’ll specialize in building responsive and elegant web applications that scale to millions of users in dozens of languages. You’ll help Google build next-generation web applications like Gmail, Google Search, Google Maps, Google+ and more.  \nWhy Google? Impact.  \nGoogle is and always will be an engineering company. We hire people with a broad set of technical skills who are ready to tackle some of technology's greatest challenges and make an impact on millions, if not billions, of users. At Google, engineers not only revolutionize search, they routinely work on massive scalability and storage solutions, large-scale applications and develop entirely new platforms around the world. From AdWords to Chrome, Android to YouTube, Cloud to Maps, Google engineers are changing the world one technological achievement after another.  \nGeneral Interview Tips  \nExplain: We want to understand how you think, so explain your thought process and decision making throughout the interview. Remember we’re not only evaluating your technical ability, but also how you approach problems and try to solve them. Explicitly state and check assumptions with your interviewer to ensure they are reasonable.  \nClarify: Many of the questions will be deliberately open-ended to provide insight into what categories and information you value within the technological puzzle. We’re looking to see how you engage with the problem and your primary method for solving it. Be sure to talk through your thought process and feel free to ask specific questions if you need clarification.  \nImprove: Think about ways to improve the solution you present. It’s worthwhile to think out loud about your initial thoughts to a question. In many cases, your first answer may need some refining and further explanation. If necessary, start with the brute force solution and improve on it —just let the interviewer know that's what you're doing and why.  \nPractice: You won’t have access to an IDE or compiler during the interview so practice writing code on paper or a whiteboard. Be sure to test your code and ensure it’s easily readable without bugs. Don’t stress about small syntactical errors like which substring to use for a given method (e.g. start, end or start, length)—just pick one and let your interviewer know.  \nThe Technical Phone Interviews  \nYour phone interview will cover data structures and algorithms. Be prepared to write around 20-30 lines of code in your strongest language. Approach all scripting as a coding exercise — this should be clean, rich, robust code.  \n1. You will be asked an open ended question. Ask clarifying questions, devise requirements.  \n2. You will be asked to explain it in an algorithm.  \n3. Convert it to a workable code. ( Hint: Don't worry about getting it perfect because time is limited.  \nWrite what comes but then refine it later. Also make sure you consider corner cases and edge cases, production ready.)  \n4. Optimize the code, follow it with test cases and find any bugs.  \n[google.com/](google.com/careers)[careers](google.com/careers)  \nThe Coding & Algorithm Interviews  \nCoding: You should know at least one programming language really well, preferably C++, Java, Python, Go, or C. You will be expected to know APIs, Object Orientated Design and Programming, how to test your code, as well as come up with corner cases and edge cases for code. Note that we focus on conceptual understanding rather than memorization.  \nAlgorithms: Approach the problem with both bottom-up and top-down algorithms. You will be expected to know the complexity of an algorithm and how you can improve/change it. Algorithms that are used to solve Google problems include sort","cbCaiqR5Ww0K0PKh","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiqR5Ww0K0PKh","pdf",1109417,"English","# What’s a Front End/Mobile Software Engineer?\n# General Interview Tips\n## Explain\n## Clarify\n## Improve\n## Practice\n# The Technical Phone Interviews\n# The Coding & Algorithm Interviews\n## Coding\n## Algorithms\n## Sorting\n## Data Structures\n## Mathematics\n## Graphs\n## Recursion","[{\"question\":\"What does a Front End/Mobile Software Engineer do at Google?\",\"answer\":\"They develop next-generation technologies that help users connect and interact with information.
