Applied online. Did a first online interview with one recruiter, it was mainly about what i did before and my experience. Did a second interview after that with 3 people, 30 minutes each, it was pretty much the same thing. Got rejected after that.

Interview
Applied online. The entire process took 1-2 months.
At first, about 3 weeks after applications sending, was told that I would not be considered. Then a month later, given a debugging challenge and logic test for further consideration. Did not have C++ experience, so was unable to debug in time.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Simple debugging of C++/Java functions. Easy if one knows the syntax of either language. Too pressed for time to properly debug. Easy pattern recognition logic puzzles.
Coding challenges were very enjoyable, but phone interview was nearly impossible. My interviewer didn't seem to be very engaged or interested, but such is life at such a large company.
