Interviewed Oct 2011 in Palo Alto, CA (took 1+ week)
There were two phone interviews. First phone interview was with the HR recruiter. She was very nice and asked very relevant questions specific to the position. The second phone interview was with Product Management Director. His questions seemed to express his confusion on what role they wanted to hire for. It seemed like the company did not know what they wanted to hire for.

Interviewed May 2010 in Palo Alto, CA (took 2 days)
Professional and friendly environment. Met people from the team and senior management.
What I really liked about the whole experience, they set the expectations and the HR folks are prompt with responses. Did not make it because though I interviewed well, they found someone whose background matched the position more.
Only negative - I met 12 people, everyone from programmers to HR manager to a VP. They could streamline process to only the candidates they want to hire.
Overall - If you are looking for work - I would definitely recommend interviewing there.

Interviewed Feb 2010 in Palo Alto, CA (took 2 weeks)
Initially i had a phone screen which was completely technical.There were standard questions asked in java and SQL..The phone interview was about an hour.I cleared the phone interview.Then later i was asked to come on site for a tech interview.There i had several 1:1 interviews.I was given 6 questions (basically coding in java and sql) to write code..
Probably i couldnt write the code properly.I did not go through..
The company was nice.Overall it was a gud experience
