The interview process was long, and involved a lot of people, but it was well prepared, and I was asked some solid questions which prompted further research in my spare time. The staff was very polite and welcoming.

Question 1
To show some of the code that I've worked on in the past
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at AKQA
Interview
A long process of talking to several people a couple times. Starting with a phone interview, then talking to several members of the team I was interviewing for. I remember I was really sick that day and had to leave the interview early. I guess they liked me anyway, because I got the job.
I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AKQA (San Francisco, CA) in Sep 2013
Interview
I applied through a reference. Got an initial email showing interest in my profile. They did a phone interview to learn about my skills, interest and projects. Onsite meeting with upper management was pretty casual and conversational. As it was for the internship role, they were pretty easy compared to a full-time role.
