I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Google in Aug 2017
Interview
Started with a very casual introduction of the team. Then, a very confusing and vague question. I could not communicate well with the interviewer (language barrier). So, I did not understand the question at all. I was trying to ask some questions to understand the question, but it did not help at all.

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Google in Feb 2018
Interview
My friend refers me and then it takes two - three weeks to hear from HR. Google will first ask you fill a form about your interests and language you are familiar with. Then there will be 2 interviews and each takes 45 - 60 minutes.
