I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at LinkedIn in Nov 2016
Interview
Began with an online application, then a "chat" with a recruiter. In this talk, they ask you some questions (without letting you know they quiz you beforehand) and just judge your personality. From there you set up an over-the-phone coding interview. After that there are a series of phone interviews regarding Site Reliability engineering topics such as Linux command execution, certain protocols, and how to debug a problem in a network. After these 2-3 interviews, you will get your decision.
My only gripe with the process is how long it took for an internship. There were large delays in response from the recruiters; however they were very kind.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at LinkedIn (Mumbai) in Apr 2013
Interview
The interview process was great. Streamlined, beginning with the telephonic rounds, moved quickly to the in--person interview and presentation, with paid travel to the interview location. At the venue which was the LinkedIN office in Western India, the treatment was above average for an interview candidate. Staff and interviewers showed a lot of interest in the process as well as the person.
Negative: No response after such a glowing treatment and (seemingly) successful interview. Not even an email to convey rejection. No response to query on job status. Complete silence!
