I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Valve Corporation
Interview
Very old-fashioned, more focus on whiteboard programming than knowledge and programming itself. Memorize the two questions they seem to ask everyone, they do not ask technical questions.
Tips: Work on whiteboard programming, show the ability to work without the interviewers help. If you know the answer right away, make minor mistakes and correct them afterwards - otherwise they'll change the question to one you don't know.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Valve Corporation (Bellevue, WA) in May 2016
Interview
Phone Interview, they asked me about what projects I've worked on, what I'm doing now, and why Valve. Then, they asked if I had any questions.
Then, I didn't hear anything back for a couple weeks and they flew me out to Bellevue, WA.
The first two interviews were technical. Each interview has two interviewers.

Interview
The interview process was not easy to even qualify in the first place. In order for Valve to take someone, they look at your portfolio which has to be quite impressive. It really helps if you are well-known in the industry. So in suggesting on how to get a job, first work on something or as some of my colleagues have said "just make something."
