I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Goldman Sachs in Aug 2018
Interview
1 HR phone interview, 1 Coderpad Interview, and 6 onsite interviews (each round was 1hour facing 2 people.)
Interview questions were not related to the position I applied for, nor the daily tasks I would be doing given the job description.
Just make sure you prepare for the questions posted here, and get prepared with TopCoder, HackerRank style programming tests.
I didn't hear back from HR after the last interview. This is crappy considering the time I spent for the whole process.

Question 1
Why you are looking for a job?
2 Hackerrank problems and Hash map implementation for the Coderpad interview.
A recruiter reached out to me. Technical screening was easy, then the super day loop included LC medium/hard questions. The last interview was my background check, project deep-dive, and theoretical conversation about applied solutions and their limitations/optimization.

First round was hackerrank assessment having 2 coding questions. Then after clearing that, the first round of interview had Leetcode Hard question, similar to get the maximum score. I was not able to do it. Interviewer was very nice though
