I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Google in Sep 2009
Interview
I applied on their website and they found a position relevant to my education and courses. They made me schedule a phone interview. The interview was for about 45 minutes and was heavy on the technical side. I managed to answer 75% of the questions but they declined my candidacy after the phone round. It took them 4 weeks to get back to me with the results.

Good, in depth technical questions and detailed analysis. Attention to detail to the problems given. technical knowledge needed spans several technologies and use cases. Ample time was given and felt very comfortable.
