I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Google (New York, NY) in Jan 2020
Interview
Recruiter reached out over email to set up a 15 minute call. The recruiter was friendly and only asked two questions:
1. Why are you a good fit for this role?
2. How would you increase revenue of your favorite restaurant? What data would you want to use?
I heard back a couple days later that they were not moving forward with me. I can't imagine I messed up that badly in 15 minutes, so I guess the hiring team probably just didn't like my qualifications/resume.

Interview
Amazing, very thorough interview but not too knit picky. They really valued your answer but still made you dig deeper to find a greater meaning behind the question. What was really cool to me was that they walked me through their location to show off different amenities and workspaces I could possible be going into.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Google
Interview
Applied for a Data analyst role through a referral. Got a mail from a recruiter that my resume is impressive and the team would like to more forward with me. After a week another recruiter contacted and conducted a screening call. She said I was more suitable for another role she shared. If interested she said she will be setting up a google hangout interview with the hiring manager. The role shared was not I was looking for at that time. So, had to turn down the offer.
