Interviewed Jul 2011 in Mountain View, CA (took 1 week)
Had an initial call with two different recruiters to discuss which groups were interested. Very unorganized as neither knew I had spoken to the other. Then a phone interview with members of the group. Asked some brainteasers and some strategy/consulting-type questions, but pretty brief. Heard back from a recruiter the next day about continued interest and was scheduled to fly to Mountain View the next week.

Interviewed Jul 2011 (took 3 weeks)
The overall interview process was positive. I had an 2 initial phone interviews and then they flew me out to the HQ in Mountain View, CA. There were a few complications with scheduling once I was onsite. Onsite interviews consisted of three team members. The first and Last was pleasant but the middle interviewer was not so nice. A lot of behavioral questions and case questions. Def do research about the company, interview process, and position. The best way to obtain an interview is by getting an employee referral...best of luck!

Interviewed May 2011 (took 2 weeks)
There were a number of brain teasers. Google has been known to be tough for their interviews. Even for a business analyst position they have some tough teasers.

Interviewed Feb 2011 in Dublin, County Dublin (Ireland) (took 2 weeks)
Took several emails to set up a date for the phone interview although I told them that I was available at any time during the week. They insisted that I should suggest a specific time and day, took three attempts to find a time and date that was available for the interviewer.
The interview was very casual and lasted just under 20 minutes. The interviewer used the technique of following up every answer with a question based on my answer. Every time that I managed to get in a "keyword" he went quiet and made a note.

I got the interview through an Employee Referral and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview.

Interviewed Dec 2009 in Mountain View, CA (took 2 months)
During the first phone interview, mainly he asked about my current work experience. Then he moved on to a business case question that was similar to the job posting. At the onsite interview, I interviewed with 5 people, each individually. They asked about my work experience, what I did after work, and more business case interviews.

Interviewed May 2009 in Mountain View, CA (took 3 weeks)
During all the interviews, the interviewers started with the basic background questions, but then eventually evolved into a series of "test" questions (which mostly seemed prepared in advanced). These were used to get an idea of your overall "thinking skill" - not specific to the job. They were stories that required reasoning and not jumping to the first answer that comes to mind. Overall, they appear to test you general logical reasoning skills/intelligence.
The interviewers also typed all of my answers as I spoke. I suppose this is to record my responses in a database so that if I ever apply for a job again at Google, the new interviewers can see my prior responses.
