I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Shutterfly (Santa Clara, CA) in July 2016
Interview
Application for the position was submitted online. Processes started with an HR phone interview which was scheduled 2 weeks after submission of the application. HR asked basic behavioural questions and scheduled a technical phone interview. The technical interviewer asked questions on resume. After a couple of days, I was asked to come onsite where 3 interviews were scheduled 30mins each. It was a whiteboard interview with questions on algorithms, basic data structures and on academic projects.

Got interviewed with super-intelegent guys, was asked mostly practical things
I had a short phone call with the recruiter, after which she sent me a home assignment. For a junior position, it wasn't easy, and I couldn't complete it within the given time frame. I emailed her to explain the situation, and she told me to send what I had—possibly giving me more time.
