I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Graphiq (Santa Barbara, CA)
Interview
It starts with a take-home project that you have to complete in a week. The project is pretty simple but they will appreciate if you add something of your own and still respect the deadline. If you pass that, you get a phone interview which is sort of technical. They focus on your projects and interest in the company.
After that, you'll have 4-5 on-site interview (including the CEO). This is a really cool experience since this is a mix of technical, behavioral and general aptitude questions. All interviewers are very nice and friendly. Office location is nice too.

Question 1
Nothing terribly difficult. They want to see if you are actually passionate about what you do or not. This is slightly different than other companies which strictly stick with DS and Algorithmic questions.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Graphiq
Interview
The first round phone interview mainly asked the previous experience related to this position. The previous ETL experience, data analysis experience and database experience will be helpful. Also several technical questions will be asked. These questions are related to the database and the algorithms to to process the text data.
I applied through university. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Graphiq
Interview
I submitted my resume through college career center, and had one on-site interview, two phone interviews, and an onsite-interview with 5 rounds. HRs are professional, and really try to make interview process smooth and comfortable for everyone. It wont take more than 2 days to hear back FTB's decision and feedback. All questions are related to your past courses and past internships. People looks very very nice.
