I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Google (New York, NY) in Nov 2016
Interview
the recruiter brought me in, then I had 5 45-minute sessions, 1 on 1 with different people, asking different questions, most requiring writing code on the whiteboard. I had an hr break in the middle for lunch. It was quite intense. Tough questions.
