Around November 2007 I managed to get into Google’s Boston office for an interview.  I had always wanted to interview at Google and this was the opportunity I had been waiting for.  I had applied many times in the past, but never got anything except a generated rejection letter.  Before I got my interview and while I was studying I searched endlessly online for any tips that might help me succeed and to know what to expect.  There are plenty of resources, and I’ll highlight a couple of them.  I’m not going to reproduce what’s already been said.  I’m just going to tell the story of my visit to the Google Boston office starting with my early attempts to get an interview and ending with the actual interview and my reactions to it.
