I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at NVIDIA (Santa Clara, CA) in June 2012
Interview
Reasonable phone screen and then face to face interviews. Interview process was fairly common. Nothing out of the ordinary or unusual. Well handled overall. Interviewers were enthusiastic and genial
They asked to talk about some projects I worked on and then also asked two leetcode questions. I answered both questions correctly, although the second one I answered more slowly and the code was not organized but the solution was correct.

Initial interview
First a brief self-introduction of the team

Then they asked me if I had 5000 applications at the same time, how would I deal with it

Question 1
Tell me about a project you built at work.
If it had 5000 concurrent requests, how would you make sure you didn't lose requests?
60 minute technical interview as the first stage instead of a regular screening. Very effective, interviewer was quite professional. Would totally recommend applying, had it as my first big-tech interview
