Question 1
What’s your biggest accomplishment outside of work
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at YouTube (Los Angeles, CA) in Mar 2013
Interview
Five consecutive one-on-one interviews, followed by a full panel of all five employees. Rigorous questions about experience, and even some roleplay on situational issues and creative problem solving. The hiring panel did a great job, and even affirmed my confidence about the role and my skill set. It was a potentially exhausting routine, lasting nearly five hours, but I heard positive feedback within one week and two months later I began.

A chat with the recruiter before being sent a coding test. The coding test was two questions of medium difficulty. Afterwards, there was an interview over the phone with an engineer before being sent in for an on-site interview.

Questions on graphs. They seem to really like BFS/DFS questions. Another question was on making long sequences of numbers, and how to analyze that. The last question was on designing a site that gives out a certain service and how to manage that. Just look up "design interview questions" and make sure you are well versed.
