I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at LinkedIn in Feb 2011
Interview
I got the rec on LinkedIn's website. I did a phone interview that went well and then went in for an all day of one-on-ones. The interviews were standard Valley stuff. Whiteboarding with algorithms, design questions, etc. I enjoyed the group I met but I felt that there were too many interviewers (6 total). Afterwards, the recruiter said that she'd get back to me ASAP and that they'd move fast. That didn't happen. It's been over two weeks and I still haven't heard back - I'm assuming they're passing.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at LinkedIn (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
Was greeted by a person who basically walked me around the office during my interview, did a couple of rounds with a group on a whiteboard solving a coding challenge, and one to solve a software architecture challenge. Had lunch onsite. And one round of interview with someone who wasn't technical.
