I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Tripadvisor in Sep 2015
Interview
It was a multi-stage process. First a few conversations with a woman from HR, by email and then by phone. She was convinced I was a good fit, but wasn't sure about my technical skills. She then proceeded to ask me questions about concepts and structures that didn't exist in the language I was being interviewed for. She seemed to think that my lack of knowledge of non-existent primitives and structures was a flaw. Nonetheless, I was escalated to a proper interview with the technical lead.
The tech lead was not much better. He asked a series of questions designed not to prove that I knew what I was doing, but rather that I'd made the same decisions in life that he had with regard to my education and experience. This interview was short and by the end of it, I think we were both happy I wasn't getting the job.

Interview
Good, although, sometimes struggling in providing you information about when interview will be leaving you wondering. Technical interview was good, I went into in uncertain as I wasn't sure about if I could solve a challenge. Recruiter was very nice and informative as well. Gutted to not progress onto next stages but they layout whole process for you and provide with you with feedback even if you fail the technical interview.
I hope to re-apply soon when I become more confident with approaching technical assessments cause these do not correlate with your day to day duties as SE.

Looks like a demanding process. I didn’t get through the initial stage interview due to not having great answers for the screening questions so I can’t tell much on what comes later
