I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Google (Mountain View, CA) in Feb 2023
Interview
It was a long and tedious interview process. The recruiter forgot about me several times and they were the one who contacted me. I had to keep following up. I had a screen with the recruiter, then a follow up call with a TPM for questions the recruiter couldn't answer, then a first interview with TPM. After that I would have had an onsite day long interview.

Question 1
You have 1000 cars and need to get photos of all the world into Google street view. How would you solve this problem, let's brainstorm.
Four interviews broken up over 2-3 days. These include Role Related Knowledge, Googleyness & Leadership, General Cognitive Analysis, and Technical Judgement. This is about as much as I can provide on these topics.
Took over a year. The interview process was incredibly drawn out and insanely long. In the end I couldn't find a match. The manager I met with crossed her arms and actually rolled her eyes at me as soon as I said hello and asked her how her day was going.
