For people who is currently working as a software engineer, what type of behavioral questions is being asked in interview? Can you give me some examples besides the normal ones like tell me about yourself/strength/weakness. I know questions varies on the type of positioning you interview for, which is why I asked particularly people who is working as a software engineer.

I had an interesting one, it was along the lines of if you know for a fact that you have a better implementation or algorithm to solve a particular problem, but the rest of the team is dead set on another implementation, how do you handle that conflict?

That’s a good answer if the discussion already happened.

On an initial call with a company's recruiter, I was told the salary range. I said that the base pay is lower than what I make now, but with equity it's about equal, so it would be ok. If I actually receive an offer after the interview process, can I ask the company to match or at least get closer on the base pay? I'm also up for promotion this year so like to get a higher salary, but not sure if by saying "ok" to the recruiter's salary range that it'd look bad to ask for more later.c

GCA Questions Help

Hi everyone!
I've had 2 rounds of interviews at Google (UK) for a non-tech role in Platforms & Ecosystems (L4/L5). Recruiter told me that I've been selected for the final rounds (GCA + Leadership Interview). From his feedback, one thing they wanted me to improve on was the GCA Questions. Would anyone have any tips on how to prepare for these? I've checked some of Jeff Sipe videos online but would appreciate any support! I find GCA quite stressful...
Thx
Thanks in advance!
