Application
I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Google (Berkeley, CA) in Jan 2015
Interview
After submitting an application on their website, they sent me a message asking me to set up a time to have a call with them. Went through that. Very basic questions.Received an e-mail asking me to set up a time to interview on-campus. Did the interview on my college campus. Did not make it past that stage.

Question 1
How would you monetize Google Maps?
What's one product that's blown your mind and why?
What product could you see yourself working on and why?
They asked what my favorite product was and how I would make it better. The entire interview was mostly centered around the product that I chose and my thinking about it.
5 interviews on-site with different team members.
It was hard to go from a friendly office tour to a deeply technical CS question first thing in the morning! However, it got easier after the first question and everyone was very friendly.
PS- The office is very fun too.
