I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Groupon (San Jose, CA)
Interview
I contacted a recruiter through Linkedin, and we quickly set up a technical phone interview that consisted of basic programming questions (string formatting, tree traversal). The onsite round was multiple technical interviews with software engineers from various groups. The questions were all typical programming assignments, but I was surprised that I never heard back from them afterwards. Despite this, I will be grading this as an "easy" interview; my guess is I was turned down for non-skills related reasons.
One thing noted in an earlier review was the reimbursement process - I also experienced issues with this, and it took quite some time to get paid back.

I had a virtual on-site, it was long with multiple rounds. One round involved coding; another round involved debugging an application. Overall friendly but depends on who you interview with.
