The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Tripadvisor (Newton, MA) in Nov 2011
Interview
Very aggressive interview stile - they grill you in technical questions, do not really care about your personality.
I have heard from my friend (who quit TripAdvisor) that working there 8 hours is equals to working 10-11 at another place - they will wash you out and this actually happened during an interview.

Question 1
Find the largest sum of contiguous numbers in an array
The interview consisted of a coding interview, 2 system design interviews + coding, and a culture fit interview. Interviews was well-prepared and conducted in a friendly atmosphere. Interviewers were helpful.
Overall the process was really difficult (7 interviews overall) but they decided pretty quickly and the interviews were all comprised in 3/4 days.
Most of the interviewers were nice and tried to make your life easy when you hit a dead-end.

Interview
After the interview, I had a biter feeling, and I was ghosted by a recruiter who did not provide the interview result to the manager. It seems they are just collecting candidates' data.
