I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at LinkedIn (Sunnyvale, CA) in Mar 2019
Interview
Recruiter phone call with simple technical questions, then two technical phone screens with current SREs, then an onsite stage with 4 technical modules, 1 soft skill module and lunch. Decision took about 2 weeks after last interview. Final round with manager, more soft skills and some technical descriptions of the job. Contact with the company was great through all of the interview process. Then things unfortunately fell apart. It seems like they have a whole process that they have zero confidence in and at the end of the day everything is still just one guy who either likes you or he doesn't. Huge waste of time.

Question 1
Recruiters will give you a really good idea of what you will encounter along the way. Ask them to elaborate on areas you aren't clear on and take notes. Take your time studying. Talk to your interviewers they will help you smooth out the rougher patches.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at LinkedIn (Sunnyvale, CA) in Mar 2019
Interview
Two phone screenings and one one site. First phone screening is coding. The quiz was easy and I used Python. The second phone screening was a system design. The onsite include 5 parts: system design, code review, service management, troubleshooting and resume review.
The people were nice and ok. The only issue is I didn't get follow up after onsite. This made me feel not very good.
First phone "interview" with recruiter was behavioral, and then the recruiter let me know what would come next (in detail). Did one in-person Python scripting interview, followed by 2 phone technical interviews about SRE concepts.
