Google's TPM interview process for mid-level candidates typically consists of a recruiter screening call, followed by a technical phone screen, and 4-5 onsite rounds conducted over one full day. The process evaluates technical depth, program management capability, system design thinking, cross-functional leadership, and cultural fit with Google's values. Interviewers assess your ability to manage complex projects across multiple teams, make data-driven decisions, handle ambiguity, and communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
