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.

Interview
First had a phone interview with HR. And then had a phone screen interview with an engineer. He asked 4 coding questions, 1 pretty basic scripting, 2 log processing , and 1 network. And the next round was a phone interview with 3 engineers, and I failed at this round.
