Google Trials AI Assistants for Coding Interviews
Google is piloting a new interview format that lets software engineering candidates use AI assistants during parts of the hiring process. The move aims to reflect the modern engineering landscape shaped by generative AI. Junior to mid-level applicants will use an approved AI model in the “code comprehension” round to read, debug, and optimize existing code. Interviewers will assess prompt engineering, output validation, and AI-debugging skills. The pilot launches with select U.S. teams, with a potential global rollout ahead.
