Interviewed Feb 2011 in Mountain View, CA (took 6 weeks)
(About 3 weeks from start of interviewing to final in-house interview, due to scheduling for flight of in-house interview. About six weeks or more from introductions to final offer, but was in relatively good contact several times per week during the entire course.)
A few phone interviews over the course of a week or so: general programming knowledge, personality, lifestyle questions, etc. Tried to determine a basic level of competency with web technologies; in addition to basic algorithms, some questions on HTML/CSS, the box model (including if you have knowledge of IE quirks of the box model), etc.
Was flown out for an in-person interview over a partial workday (10am-2pm) consisting of a project simulation, a presentation of what you finished of the simulation, lunch with the team, and three interviews with various team leaders. (Including one interview with an N-Queens-derived algorithm question.)
Very friendly crew from the recruiting/on-boarding team to the engineers to the marketing folks. Great talent (ex-Facebook, ex-Yahoo employees). Algorithm question stumped me, but was allowed to bounce my ideas off of the interviewer and eventually solved the problem by communicating the thought process and getting feedback.

Efficiency is not a concern.
Reason for Declining
Offer wasn't quite where I wanted it to be and they were fairly solid on it.
Other Details
I got the interview through a Recruiter and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview, a Group/Panel Interview, a Presentation, a Skills Test and a Background Check.

Interviewed Nov 2009 in Seattle, WA (took 2 weeks)
A lot of networking questions, and they seem to emphasize a lot on web skills (make sure you know your CSS). Also a couple of database questions, writing SQL statements.

Interviewed Jan 2010 in Mountain View, CA (took 2 weeks)
The application process was handled by two very professional recruiters. Email response times were quick and they were pretty flexible with the phone screen times.
