Interviewed Nov 2011 in San Francisco, CA (took 2 weeks)
I got a call from HR regarding my interest and my skill sets.
Then they set me up with telephonic Interview with the Director or QA.
This was followed by another telephonic interview with EVP
Once I cleared that. they asked me to come on site for a series of Face to Face interview
There were 7, 30 min 1:1 interviews back to back. They placed me in a conf room and every 30 mins people came in to interview
I also had Lunch Interview with the EVP as well.
Each interviewer had a java programing question in mind and asked to code it on the white board. Some were tough ones and some were easy. eq, Str rev, Factorial, Fibonacci series. etc
There was one product manager who actually gave me their web tool and asked me to find bugs on it and actually asked me to file the bug in bugzilla, this was kind of cool.
Overall exp was good, they are free beverages which helped me

Interviewed Aug 2011 (took 4 days)
Got a call from recruiter and asked me several basic data structure and java questions. On one question I give her the correct answer but it is different with the "correct answer" in her question list (two different ways of presenting the same result). I tried to explain it to her but she doesn't understand why they are actually the same thing. I also sent her an email explaining what I said and I think any engineer can understand. But I was finally rejected without any opportunity talking with an engineer.

Interviewed Feb 2011 in San Francisco, CA (took a day)
Interviewed with one of the product managers that was very junior and then with the VP of product management. The VP seemed to want to pump me for information on a company I worked for that had a product that was similar to their product.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in San Francisco, CA (took 1 week)
my interview process was a breeze since i came through as a referral and given my relevant background in the industry. i was brought on site for 4 1-on-1 interviews with 3 engineers and a VP about a week after my friend submitted my resume. I heard back from the company with the decision in a matter of days. every one was extremely nice and helpful and definitely convinced me that marin would be a great fit for me. the questions were technical but nothing too out of the ordinary. they did request that i take a multiple choice personality test that i assume was used to gauge fit with the other team members as well as working style.
