Google pilots AI-assisted Code Comprehension interviews for engineers

Google is piloting a new software engineer interview round called Code Comprehension, in which candidates read, debug and optimize existing code with Gemini open, Business Insider reported in May based on an internal document. A Google spokesperson confirmed Gemini is the pilot assistant. The round targets junior to mid-level roles in select US teams, starting with Google Cloud and Platforms and Devices, and assesses prompt writing, output checking and debugging. The pilot is small in scope, planned to begin in the second half of this year, and Google says it may expand to more teams and regions if it goes well.
