I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Google (Mountain View, CA) in Oct 2016
Interview
Had two phone interviews and was given a design exercise. After review of my design exercise, I was flown to the Google headquarters, where I had a full day of interviews. I had one initial portfolio presentation with 6 people, followed by 45 minute 1-1 interviews with each of the 6 people.

Question 1
There is a new residential skyscraper that also has a restaurant on top. Access to all apartments and the restaurant are secured behind a locked door. Design an interface that will be on the first floor and take the place of a door person.
The interview process felt quite unprofessional.
HR emailed me on the same day and asked me to choose an interview time that day, which felt very unreasonable and gave me almost no time to prepare.
After the phone screen, I was supposed to interview with the hiring manager, but the coordination seemed to missing something.
No interview was scheduled, and I only found out something was wrong when I followed up during the interview week. I then received a last-minute calendar invitation.
After the interview, there was no follow-up at all. I finally received a rejection email about a month and a half later.
Overall, the process showed a lack of respect for candidates.
The interview process has been pretty smooth. Their HR team is super friendly and helpful throughout the process. Although I didn't get an offer, it was a great learning experience.
