I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at VMware (Palo Alto, CA) in May 2016
Interview
2 phone screens, and then 5 rounds of on-site interviews.
Signed NDA, so cannot reveal the actual questions. But make sure you cover the following topics:

First phone screen involved a coding question. Second phone screen was on system design.
