There are several stages in the interview process:
(1) A long written interview (25-35 long answer questions). Be prepared to write 10+ pages in response.
(2) An aptitude test.
(3) An long take-home technical test. Probably 6+ hours of work.
(4) "Early stage" interviews with a variety of employees, including your hiring lead.
(5) Meeting with a member of the "Talent Team" (not sure about this, I didn't make it this far).
(6) "Late stage" interviews.
