I recently had an interview with Google London, Oh boy did a screw it up, it's like I'm reading my experience, my mind simply went blank ! The interviewer was like the nicest person I've been interviewed by (he's pretty famous and I recognized his voice btw). The task was hilariously easy (I've done the same thing like 2 days ago), but when I was asked to work on it on the phone I bombed ! Basically I was thinking of everything else BUT the problem at hand. The guy kept being nice telling me that this happens all the time (you know people freezing). At the end I wasn't lucky enough to proceed to the next level and frankly I felt that I deserved to fail and I should not be a programmer and what not. Very depressing - I took at as a BIG personal failure and missing an opportunity of a lifetime. I think the thing that makes it worst is the fact that I honestly knew this, after the interview was over I looked at the problem and couldn't believe that I wasn't able to do it. Complete mental block. I think I've recovered since, and I'm trying to improve. Just want to say (because I've heard complaints from other people) - Google were very nice, and worked very quick with me, I've submitted my CV and got a call the same day (maybe just lucky), then I basically chose the date of my interview and they were spot on. Also they gave me good feedback.
