I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Qualtrics
Interview
I was first contacted for a phone interview and then later had an onsite. Everybody was friendly and seemed passionate about their work. The onsite consisted of 3 sets of 1 on 1s where it was the same process. I had to describe myself and then answer a couple behavioral/situational questions and then onto the coding. I didn't do so well on one of the coding questions so I'm pretty sure that affected my results.

Question 1
From phone interview: write a function to verify a BST
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Qualtrics in Jan 2016
Interview
It was disorganized. Every round was technical. I went through 3 rounds (2 phone + 1 skype). Solved all the problems, but had my application rejected at the Hiring Committee. When asked for feedback, I was refused and given a generic response. A slow, painful process and at the end, no feedback was even given.

Interview 3:
How to serialize a Binary Search Tree? What special properties can you use that you can't use when serializing a normal Binary Tree? Write code to recreate the Serialized Binary Search Tree?
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Qualtrics
Interview
Pretty standard, straightforward process. First: a technical coding Skype interview. If you pass, you'll get second one within a week or two. Second: onsite invitation (a combination of a sell day, culture fit, and one or two technical interviews). The onsite day was great, they flew all of the candidates out and put them in a hotel and reimbursed travel/food expenses. The Provo office is already large and established, and the Seattle office is still relatively small but growing.
Overall, all of the engineers and HR staff I interacted with at Qualtrics were fantastic people. The process was very transparent and timely; the product itself is actually pretty interesting, given that amount of data the company is collecting. Interns have a lot of agency over their projects.
