I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Google
Interview
After applying through the Google Jobs website, I was reached out to by a member of their People Operations team. I had a short telephone interview with one of the recruiters, then 2 telephone interviews with members of the team I would be joining, and then an offer. The whole process was very well organised and swift.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Questions regarding how you advise partners to use the Google products my team worked with.
Referred by a friend. Get email from HR pretty soon. Scheduled three crazy interviews on the same day in the next month. Three guys from different teams interviewed me. Answered two questions for each interview in the first two rounds. Only answered one in the last one. A pretty new question, some thing like search common ancestors in several DAGs.

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Google
Interview
The first question is atoi. The interviewer is nice and did not require me to consider the boundary case, e.g. Integer.MAX_VALUE, Integer.MIN_VALUE.
The second question is "give a binary search tree and a target, find the closest number to the target".
