I applied through an employee referral. The process took two months.
The process started with a recruiter screen covering standard background questions, followed by a one-hour interview with the hiring manager focused on behavioral "tell me about a time..." style questions. Next was a take-home assessment, estimated at 60 to 90 minutes, which was then reviewed with two engineers. After that, I had a systems design interview with a principal and senior principal engineer. At that point, I was told the next steps would include a culture panel and another discussion with the engineering manager. However, after waiting about a week without scheduling, I was informed that the company had reconsidered and would not be moving forward.
