I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at DraftKings (Boston, MA) in Oct 2015
Interview
Was barely asked any technical questions. It was mostly being told about the awesome benefits and perks and how I'll be able to put a down payment on a house next year with what they have planned. The whole process was unprofessional and the in-house recruiter should be selling used cars. We were in the salary negotiating phase when he suddenly changed his mind without telling me. I had to call him three times before getting an email to say they decided not to move forward anymore. I do believe I dodged a bullet, though, as I read all the news articles about them lately.
The phone screening question was standard and went over my resume, along with talking about the role. Asked about test driven development a lot. They do a technical question, then a system design question, followed by a meeting with the team manager it sounds like.
I had my first HR interview with DraftKings. It was mainly about getting to know the company, understanding the general role, talking about my past experience, and answering few easy initial technical questions.

Interview
The interview process was fairly straightforward - after the screening and technical interview they put you in a 3 hour final round with three separate interviews back-to-back, the last one being a chat with the team lead. The recruiter was nice and helpful throughout the process.
