I applied online. I interviewed at Google in Feb 2014
Interview
Submitted resume online and got connected by recruiter. Then scheduled two 45-mins technical phone interviews with Google engineers. It was not hard but I gave them wrong answer about time complexity. But the engineers are very nice and friendly. After that I got the email about making a third phone interview. I think that might because I did just on average in the first two rounds and they want to give me another chance. But later I got several other offer deadlines approaching and thus declined further interview process with Google.
Google's host matching round takes quite a time. But great company though.

I applied online and within about a week I was offered an interview. The interview consisted of a google hangout with two different google employees that each interviewed me for 45 minutes. The guys couldn't get there audio working so they both just called me instead.
