J'ai postulé via une recommandation d'un employé. J'ai passé une entrevue à Google (Paris) en janvier 2016.
Entretien
Il s'agit du processus standard de Google pour le recrutement d'ingénieurs. J'ai d'abord eu une conversation téléphonique avec une RH basée à Londres puis un entretien d'une heure à distance via Hangouts, qui a consisté en quelques questions simples de programmation. Ensuite je suis allé passer les entretiens "on site" à Paris. Il s'agit de 5 entretiens techniques de 45 minutes dans une journée : 4 de coding et un de system design.

J'ai postulé via un recruteur. J'ai passé une entrevue à Google (Lyon).
Entretien
J'ai été contacté via LinkedIn. Ils m'ont demandé si j'avais déjà envisagé une carrière chez eux. Ce n'était pas le cas mais j'étais quand même très intéressé.
La RH qui était très sympa m'a proposé plusieurs entretiens téléphoniques pour discuter de mes expériences.
J'ai ensuite dû faire des tests/entretiens sur Gdoc.
On vous demande de réaliser un exercice similaire à ceux trouvés dans Cracking the coding interview (que je recommande).

J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 5 semaines. J'ai passé une entrevue à Google (Paris) en janvier 2015.
Entretien
Un recruteur m'a contacté sur LinkedIn en me demandent si cela m'intéressait de postuler chez Google (c'était le cas).
Le processus d'entretiens commence avec un appel avec le recruteur pour faire connaissance et prévoir une date pour le premier entretien.
Le premier entretien se fait par Hangout et Google Doc avec un ingénieur des US en général (il vaut mieux être à l'aise en anglais et maîtriser un vocabulaire technique).
Ensuite il y a des entretiens "onsite" pendant une journée, dans les bureaux de Google de votre choix.

J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 4+ semaines. J'ai passé une entrevue à Google en mai 2016.
Entretien
I was found by a recruiter and he proposed to apply for an SWE position in Zurich or in Warsaw. This was the first phone interview. The interviewer asked me the main question (below). Afterwards he asked me another question: given a text, how would I find the most common letter in that text? What if the text is ASCII/Unicode? What if the text was only 8 characters long? After this interview they decided to have another phone screen with me.

After initial contact from the HR, had a technical phone interview. He was not ready. First, at the interview time, the interviewer calls me to say that he is still at home and will call back in 1h. One hour after, he was ready but not prepared. No idea of who I was, no CV in front, made me think : "what am I doing here, and why am I losing my time?"

J'ai postulé via une recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé une entrevue à Google (Mountain View, CA (États-Unis)) en avril 2014.
Entretien
Direct onsite because I interviewed in the past and did well that time. From the time I sent my resume to interview day: 2 weeks. From interview day to offer over the phone: 2 weeks.
The syllabus for the interviews is very clear and simple:
1) Dynamic Programming
2) Super recursion (permutation, combination,...2^n, m^n, n!...etc. type of program. (NP hard, NP programs)
3) Probability related programs
4) Graphs: BFS/DFS are usually enough
5) All basic data structures from Arrays/Lists to circular queues, BSTs, Hash tables, B-Trees, and Red-Black trees, and all basic algorithms like sorting, binary search, median,...
6) Problem solving ability at a level similar to TopCoder Division 1, 250 points. If you can consistently solve these, then you are almost sure to get in with 2-weeks brush up.
7) Review all old interview questions in Glassdoor to get a feel. If you can solve 95% of them at home (including coding them up quickly and testing them out in a debugger + editor setup), you are in good shape.
8) Practice coding--write often and write a lot. If you can think of a solution, you should be able to code it easily...without much thought.
9) Very good to have for design interview: distributed systems knowledge and practical experience.
10) Good understanding of basic discrete math, computer architecture, basic math.
11) Coursera courses and assignments give a lot of what you need to know.
12) Note that all the above except the first 2 are useful in "real life" programming too!
Interview 1:
Graph related question and super recursion
Interview 2:
Design discussion involving a distributed system with writes/reads going on at different sites in parallel.
Interview 3:
Array and Tree related questions
Interview 4:
Designing a simple class to do something. Not hard, but not easy either. You need to know basic data structures very well to consider different designs and trade-offs.
Interview 5:
Dynamic programming,
Computer architecture and low level perf. enhancement question which requires knowledge of Trees, binary search, etc.
At the end, I wasn't tired and rather enjoyed the discussions. I think the key was long term preparation and time spent doing topcoder for several years (on and off as I enjoy solving the problems).
Conclusion: "It's not the best who win the race; it's the best prepared who win it."
Négociation
You can and should negotiate politely. You are in a stronger position if you have another offer, but even otherwise, you should ask for more of every type of payment!

J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé une entrevue à Google.
Entretien
I first had a phone screen interview. After this, I was asked to come onsite for further interviews. I had 4 whiteboard and 1 lunch interview with the Youtube team. After this, I was told that my application is going through the Hiring Committee.
Hiring committee asked my HR to find a team for me before giving any decision. I then had two phone interviews with different teams in Android. I informed my HR that I am interested in the first team. Next day, HR emailed me and said that this team no longer has an open position. I again went through the same process. This time, platform team was interested in talking to me. I gave 2 phone interviews wherein they made me write code. After their feedback, I was put through the Hiring committee again and this time I got a thumbs up from them. 1 week after that I was put through executive committee and got my offer.
I had 7 other offers and my HR asked me about all of them before putting me through executive review. They gave me more than any other company I had offer from.

Entretien
The interview went seemingly smoothly, except for a couple quirks in the code on the whiteboard. The questions were way easier than I expected. The interviewers were not intimidating at all and did not try to make the process stressful. I felt like I passed and according to HR, the overall feedback was positive. My application went to the hiring committee which, in turn, rejected the offer.
