I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Wonga.com (London, England) in Sept 2017
Interview
Quite a standard process: after some calls with a recrutier, I had a phone call with two engineers. They asked some general experience questions and some technical questions. The call lasts about 30 minutes
Then I was asked to complete a programming test (about 4 hours).
Last step was a two hours interview with some pair-programming exercises, a general discussion with the CTO, and a further discussion with two senior engineer on architectural and design questions.

Interview
The process started off by sending my CV.
A few days later I had a phone call with my engineering manager. it was a short call (20 min) about general aspects of software engineering.
Then I was given a tech test. I spent 3 days and submitted the code (basically there is no limitation) . when two senior engineers reviewed my code, they arranged a Skype meeting. (I was outside of the UK) this time I was asked to shortly explain my code as well as make some changes.
Finally, I spoke with few product owners and engineering managers.
