I've had several interviews for internships with Google, and I've never had a single question like these. Lots of data structures and algorithms, never a single riddle. Like I said, these interviews were for internships, but I would be surprised if they ask those kinds of questions for full-time jobs but not for internships.
- ssp 17y agoData structure and algorithm questions can be more or less like riddles though. For example, the question about finding a loop in a singly linked list is a bit like a riddle. There is also one about writing out a binary tree layer by layer, which really amounts to: "do you know what breadth-first traversal is, and do you get the insight that you can do that on trees too?"
