I applied through university. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Google (Sydney) in Feb 2015
Interview
Phone interview felt unnatural and the person holding the interview seemed disinterested in being there. Jumped around between different technical, personality and general questions. Not sure if this was intended or not.
10:36 PM
Claude responded: The hiring process consists of a CV screening stage, followed by a behavioral online assessment, and then wraps up with a 30-minute interview with the team.

They asked what my favorite product was and how I would make it better. The entire interview was mostly centered around the product that I chose and my thinking about it.
5 interviews on-site with different team members.
It was hard to go from a friendly office tour to a deeply technical CS question first thing in the morning! However, it got easier after the first question and everyone was very friendly.
PS- The office is very fun too.
