I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Nokia in Apr 2015
Interview
Three stage interview. The first one was coding tasks with automatic evaluation, where one should do some moderate tasks, such as find the bug, write some simple algorithm, etc.
Second was a technical talk with group of developers and specialists + language skills evaluation, where one had to answer questions related to C++, thread safety, data structures.
The last one was live coding session by Skype, one had to write some C++ and C code, checking basic language awareness.
One meeting with both HR and manager. Focused on c++ and overall software engineering knowledge. Not so hard, engineers knew what they were talking about. Some questions about telcom knowledge but it was something entierely new to me.

After submitting my CV, I had to complete an online test. The task involved comparing strings. Then there was an interview with HR, during which we scheduled the technical interview.

It was typical tech interview, ~1.5h, list of questions, while answering they were going deeper to check the level of understanding of each concept. Atmosphere was nice, questions were matched to the level of seniority
