I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Gap (San Francisco, CA) in Jan 2016
Interview
I had a couple of phone screens and then was called on -site where i had 5 interviews in groups of 2. Which means i met over 10 people.
The last group walked me out but later i got a call from the recruiter that i had one more interview. Since i had already left, they scheduled a phone interview with the hiring manager's boss.
All went well, but then they went dark. No one from GAP contacted me for 3 weeks. I wrote emails to them every week, but no response.
After my 4th email which is about 4 weeks after the interview, the recruiter emailed me that they have changed the job description and didn't need a PM anymore.

Basic tech stack, roles and responsibilities, situation based questions
amazing, they were really detailed in their questions, very obvious they knew their stuff, really enjoyed it very very much. I felt comfortable and at ease, they guided me through everything well.
Very easy and pretty simple one. It was a panel interview with everyone asking their questions. Most of which were situational and hypothetical ones. It began with tell me about yourself and then went on for good 30 minutes.
