I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at G-Research (London, England) in May 2014
Interview
I took the test before and passed it. It is exactly same test but now i failed. Probably an internee was checking it as it did not mark any questions but only put marks which was 50%.

Other Software Developer interview reviews for G-Research
The interview process was thorough and well structured. It focused primarily on data structures and algorithms, and the level was broadly in line with what you would expect for a software engineering interview of this type. I cannot share specific details of the questions, but standard preparation in algorithms, data structures, problem solving, and coding under interview conditions should be sufficient. Overall, it felt rigorous but fair.
There were mostly algorithmic questions to be solved on a whiteboard. Then, after a lunch with a couple of the junior staff, the tell you whether you’re into the next round. There is also a test beforehand.
2-3 parts depending on team. Pretty in depth on topics. 2 coding rounds I believe. Interview process is fairly quick. It’s not a process that takes 3-4 weeks. 2 weeks max, 1 week if you’re really adamant.
