I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Google
Interview
I applied through a referral. After 1 week I was contacted by the recruiter and in the next 2 weeks I had 2 techinical interviews. After that I was asked for one more interview. The interviewers where very friendly, if I got stuck they helped with some hints. It's really important to do your homework, learn about the company, prepare some questions, fall in love with algorithms and data structures :)

Interview
Applied online. Got email scheduling me for 2 phone interviews with software engineers. Coded over google docs. Both amazingly nice. Questions required solid understanding of data structures. Would recommend applying just for practice.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Google (Durham, NC) in Sep 2015
Interview
They move very quickly from to time of application to the interview. It was less than a week from my time of application to my interview. The technical interview was as expected and should follow their interview suggestions and preparation material. The day of the interview they were back to back 45 minute interviews and were spent almost entirely coding for the first round interviews.
