I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at LinkedIn
Interview
Contacted by recruiter, agreed to do phone screen, went on site. Had 5 interviews. Two coding/algorithmis, one design, one communication, one chatting about my history. Also had lunch in the cafeteria. They have an ipad with your schedule for the day. They let you know your interviewers ahead of time. The recruiting host shows you around the place before you start. It's a nice place.
