Yes. Google starts around this time, and Facebook starts even earlier. When I was in my Junior year I interviewed and got my offer from Facebook when it was still September. In contrast, Google didn't get back to me until November or so.

If you want them to hurry it up, you just need to mention your existing offers. In my Senior year, I was able to get Google to complete the entire interview-interview-offer process within a week and half, before the first week of October, because I had a Facebook deadline.

So the best bet is to interview early so you can use that as a negotiating stick for getting other companies.
