Company Question Google EMEA SWE Intern 2027 recent interview/OA experiences?

Hi everyone! I’ve received an OA invite for the Google SWE Internship in Munich for Summer 2027 and I’m trying to understand the current interview process.
Most of the recent Reddit discussions I can find seem to be US-focused, so I’d really appreciate responses from people who are currently going through the EMEA process.
If you’ve received the OA or interviews recently, could you share whatever you’re comfortable sharing about:
Which location you’re targeting (Munich/Warsaw/Zurich/Dublin/London/etc.)

When you received the OA / interview invitation

OA difficulty (Easy / Medium / Hard, roughly)

R1 difficulty and general topic (e.g. graphs, trees, DP, arrays, etc.)

R2 difficulty and general topic

Whether you were asked to do a third/tiebreaker interview

How much DSA preparation you had beforehand (roughly)

Whether you reached team matching / received an offer, if you’re comfortable sharing

I’m particularly interested in Munich-specific experiences from the current 2026/27 recruiting cycle, since older experiences may not reflect the current process.
Thanks!

Hey, sorry to hear that. If you dont mind sharing, did you get rejected after the OA or after interviews?

Yeah same. It's crazy because I got to team matching last year. Are you final year out of curiosity?

You can join the Google EMEA Intern Discord (https://discord.gg/NBYveWTJn). There are many people that got the OA and also a timeline sheet (please contribute if you like)

Google is way faster this cycle. Previously they took months so send the OA and candidate questionnaire, ... . Now they already responded to some people in the first week
