I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Google (Oakland, CA) in Sep 2016
Interview
The first interview went well and the interviewer was friendly. The conversation was positive and productive. Before I even made it home, I was invited back for another interview.
50 minutes before my 2nd interview, while I was on my way there, they cancelled. They stated "family emergency". I went along with it as they said they would reschedule. I checked back with them 2 days later and have still not heard anything back from them.
