I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Google (London, England) in Jun 2016
Interview
A 3 stage process, two video phone calls a week apart and one face to face with a prospect colleague in the UK. I got through to the third stage, the reason for not getting an offer was that I did not no know enough about Google Play. However I provided adequate knowldge for someone who has never used the Google Play product. both interviews stated I did not need to know much about product but must be willing to learn, so in fairness - the reasoning was a contradiction.

Interview
Initial screening, two interviews with PMMs focused on behavorial questions and some hypotheticals - they provide prep on the structure they want for the hypotheticals which mostly focus on marketing thinking and thought process
Phone screening interview with HR, followed by Hangouts interview with key staff member. In-person interview with four cross-functional team members, and the hiring manager. One of my interviews with a customer service team member was very case-based ("How would you handle this...?") and my other interviews were more about the business I would be working on.

As expected, the interview had a mix of behavioral and hypothetical questions. Nothing too difficult, but you must always connect your answers back to the specific job function you’re applying for.
