I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at LinkedIn in Dec 2011
Interview
I was contacted by a Linkedin recruiter. After having a 1:1 sessions with development leads was called for an onsite. My technical interviews I thought went reasonably well but I was declined.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Given a large document and a short pattern consisting of a few words (eg. W1 W2 W3), find the shortest string that has all the words in any order (for eg. W2 foo bar dog W1 cat W3 -- is a valid pattern)
Cakewalk of an interview. Nobody knew anything about the role or its expectations. Same questions from a question bank. Questions are available on Google search in a couple of minutes. No wrong answers.
I applied online. I interviewed at LinkedIn (Mountain View, CA)
Interview
The initial communication was good and the recruiter did a good job of arranging a coding test on collabedit.
The interviewer was very unprofessional. Came late and hurried up the interview and the other person didn't turn up at all. Also the interviewer didn't know what she was working on !!!
