I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Xero (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
The recruiting department really made the process very easy. It started with a phone interview, followed up by three different Skype/Google Hangout interviews (I was a long distant applicant), and finally an onsite interview. All the interviewers were very personable and easy to talk with. The interviews were really conversational. Questions stemmed around experience with a few situational questions. I really liked everyone I met and the San Francisco office is really nice.
