J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 9 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez LinkedIn (Mountain View, CA) en déc. 2011
Entretien
I was referred by friend to Linkedin. They reached out to me back in March for a phone interview. This was a standard phone interview that focused on my background and reasons for looking at Linkedin. After two months they got back to me and scheduled a webex presentation. The presentation is set up with a few errors on the slides, you are expected to review it all and correct the errors. The presentation is held like a mock customer discovery call. The entire presentation process was fine, the follow up after was brutal. I was told that they would get back to me in 2 weeks. Of course I called after the time had passed and all I received was, "they're still waiting to make a decision".
After a month and a half I was called in for an in person interview. The interview was held with 4 different managers and took a total of 4.5 hours of the day. They quizzed me on what I knew about them. You are expected to know everything about your interviewers. STUDY their profile's before showing up. After the interview I was given feedback that I did well and I should expect an offer
1 month later and several follow up calls from me, I was told that they decided to promote from within but I was still a prime candidate. They also told me that they're in the process of relocating the sales staff and this was going to create more positions and they still were very interested in bringing me on board but it would be in the December timeframe.
The the next several months I continued to call and check on the status of the position. Every month the gentleman I spoke to would tell me to try back next month. Finally I decided to move on and look for employment else where. Then I received a call from the Linkedin recruiter who had all my information and explained that they were now ready to bring people on board. I was told that I would need to do one last in person interview to meet the new Director before offers would go out. After doing this and receiving positive feedback from the director and the recruiter I was again left to wait. 1 week later I received a verbal offer, 2 weeks later I was told they decided to go with a different candidate.

Spoke to recruiter and hiring manager. Followed up multiple times with recruiter but never responded. Saw on LinkedIn that a new person got the job, and that's how I found out the job opening was filled.

The process went very well - I applied through LinkedIn and after 10 min I already received an email to schedule the screening call. I had 3 interviews in total: Screening, hiring manager, and panel (mock call).
From the recruiter to the panel, all the people I interviewed with were absolutely amazing! I had such a great experience.
If you are have experience in such role, passing the interviews wouldn't be hard, just need to practice properly.
