The process took 1 day. I interviewed at LinkedIn (Mountain View, CA) in Mar 2012
Interview
The phone interview questions were easy and related to the position I had applied for. As for the 1 on 1 interview the questions asked were in no way related to the job position, I was shocked and speechless I only knew how to answer one of the questions and could answer it in a confident manner. In the end I was not offered the position and the lady who interviewed me did not seem interested in what I had to say.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at LinkedIn (Sunnyvale, CA) in Nov 2015
Interview
It was pretty a pretty easy and relaxed interview as well as the events leading up to it. I did a phone interview and an in person in Sunnyvale, CA. They even gave me a physical map of my connections as well as water and snacks while I waited. Overall it was a positive experience, although some words of advice would be to prepare for at least 15 of the top interview questions.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at LinkedIn (Dublin, Dublin)
Interview
In general the first interview is a more open conversation, discovery over the phone followed by another interview either onsite or on the phone, focused more on skill set, experience etc. The 3th interview is most likely onsite or video if needed having a particular tast, a role play or a recruitment strategy for a particular role that is shared with you a couple of days before hand to have time to prepare. The last meeting can be with your manager especially if he is not based in Dublin. It is more of a final, confirmation chat.

Question 1
The Q&A session is around your presentation, why did you chose that strategy, what the results were, around your skills connected with recruitment and way of approaching candidates, closing deals etc.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at LinkedIn (Sunnyvale, CA) in Oct 2014
Interview
It was hard but informational. I learned about the culture, company, and role I would be doing. It was long as well. SO many interviews. I wish it was shorter as it took away from my overall experience and somewhat left a bad taste in my mouth.
