I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Goldman Sachs (Tokyo) in Jun 2012
Interview
Phone call with two engineers, explained what the job is about, what they are looking for and the environment. The difficult part was that it's hard to ask some very technical questions over the phone, and hard to answer them. Try saying "dot space slash script name". Some questions are just not suitable for the phone that well.

Question 1
a lot of shell questions, for example what is the difference between calling a script in the following ways: script.sh ./script.sh . script.sh
A recruiter reached out to me. Technical screening was easy, then the super day loop included LC medium/hard questions. The last interview was my background check, project deep-dive, and theoretical conversation about applied solutions and their limitations/optimization.
