I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at LinkedIn in Feb 2015
Interview
HR screening is pleasant. On-site interview was 2 back-to-back interviews with hiring manager and another interviewer. These interviews were very unstructured but interviewers were friendly, which shows the LinkedIn culture.

Interview
Applied online got an email to schedule the interview. The interview went very smooth and most questions were what could be expected of a phoneinterview. There were some company specific questions Leadership, people skills, etc. Got scheduled for the next step on the phone. Very smooth, professional and good experience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do we make money?
What brings users to our site that hasn't got to do with jobs?
I applied through other source. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at LinkedIn (Mountain View, CA) in Oct 2011
Interview
My interview experience in a nutshell: 3+ months, 14 interviews, 3 separate visits on-site to interview, and no decision yet. Not to mention, HR has missed a self-imposed deadline of "we'll let you know about next steps" on 3 separate occasions.
Seriously, the worst interview experience I have probably ever had. I enjoyed meeting many of the people I interviewed with (with one notable exception) and the company seems like a nice place to work at. However, the way they have treated them throughout the interview process has completely turned me off. I have interviewed at other tech companies in the area (Google, Facebook), and this has been the most unprofessional unorganized process.
Still have yet to hear about next steps for me, which is probably not good news. However, I will decline either way.
