Interview
I applied through a referral in September 2015. A week later they got back to me and scheduled for 2 45-minute phone interviews, coding in a Google doc. Both interviewers were very friendly and supportive (it was hard to understand one of them because of the accent though). Both interviews consisted mainly of coding questions. However, we discussed my resume with the second interviewer for ~ 5 minutes.
I heard back from my recruiter 3 weeks after the interview. They were ready to proceed with the offer before the host matching process (open offer - guarantees you a project during host matching).
Later I had three host matching interviews. In the first one the host decided to go forward with another candidate, the second project was not interesting to me and the third one was pretty much a perfect match :)

Interview
My application process started in November with two LeetCode-style home assignments. In December, I sat for two technical interviews on Google Meet. Although they were meant to be back-to-back, one was rescheduled after the interviewer didn't show up. I successfully navigated a medium question with a follow-up and a hard DFS/graph problem.
Two weeks later, in January, I moved into the host-matching phase. After one team match interview in February, I wasn't selected, and by April, I received a final update that the process was closing because no further team matches were found.
