I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at LinkedIn (Mountain View, CA) in Nov 2013
Interview
got contacted by recruiter on LinkedIn. did 2 phone interviews and most questions can be found in interview books or on glassdoor. Made it to on-site and had 5 back to back interviews. it was quite tiring. I failed the design interview and some coding. there was no dynamic programming questions. lunch interview was easiest as we just chatted and one coding interview was easy but got grilled a lot in the other one and that's where I also failed some as they wanted to ask me two questions and I only got to one.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Need to be able to explain a project you've worked on in clear detail. I failed this one even though I was aware of this question.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at LinkedIn in Sep 2013
Interview
Had 2 phone interviews, supposed-to-be-five-but-turned-out-to-be-seven rounds of onsite interviews. 3 were system architecture and design related rounds. Found those a bit hard as compared to the coding & algorithmic questions.
Overall experience was average.
Post lunch interviewers were less experienced I'm assuming, because one of them yawned non-stop and a couple others had taken a vow not to speak during the interviews.
