This is great. Thanks for spending the time to type this up! It does sound like a very involved process.

  I got an email from Google's Recruiters, and went through a similar process, unfortunately I did not make it to the in person interview at the Google campus. I did have 5 different phone interviews for three different positions. With questions ranging from software engineering, to system administrator. I was really nervous, especially since I am just out of college and that may have led to my downfall. On my second phone interview the interviewer was hard to understand, lot of line noise, and he seemed to not understand me. I got all the different programming languages I know mixed up together into a bad psuedo code. This was my first over the phone programming questions. My second phone interview that contained programming went really well, the interviewer had done some reading on what I was into and helped me calm down and feel at ease. I got my programming right, got what I needed down on paper (Google Docs), and thought I did pretty well. Emailed both interviewers afterwards to thank them for their time, the guy from the second phone interview, which also happened to be my last, got back to me hoping that I would get to work together with him.
