I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at MZ (San Francisco, CA) in May 2015
Interview
Resume got to a recruiter there via a personal contact. Recruiter emailed me and scheduled a time for a phone screening. Asked basic algorithm questions and also many questions about threading. I let the recruiter know I had little experience with threading. He said their candidates need to be familiar with it. He thanked me and said he would pass my resume on to other teams there to see if I might be a good fit for them and would follow up with me in a couple days. Never followed up.

Question 1
What's the best case time complexity for a hash table insertion?
The process took about 3 weeks. I applied online, and was contacted with their recruiter. Had 1 screen interview, and then went for their onsite interview.
Got their response two days after the onsite interview.
We discussed various interesting and modern topics in-depth with different interviewers over the course of a few hours during the workday that was not during a week with a national holiday.

Had only phone interview was very easy. Answered all the question some with little hint. Still got rejected on same day. They will market about the team and work and invite you for interview but ultimately was waste of time for me.
