I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Google (San Jose, CA) in Nov 2013
Interview
My recruiter called me to have an interview in next week and did not call me back first time. At second time, she said she can arrange an interview in next week, I was so afraid to loose the opportunity and agreed to take it even I did not have enough time to prepare for it. I think google's interview needs intensive preparation.
