I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at TrueCar (Santa Monica, CA) in Jan 2015
Interview
The interview process is fairly long. First, there is a phone call with HR, then you will get a challenge assignment and will interview through video chat, then there is an onsite interview. It is probably most important that you take the challenge assignment seriously. It is fairly long, so make sure you set aside a weekend or two to work on it, especially if you currently have a job.

Question 1
They will grill you on the challenge assignment questions, so make sure you are prepared and understand your results. During the onsite, you will be asked some brain teasers.
