I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Pinterest (San Francisco, CA) in Mar 2013
Interview
Phone screen with HR recruiter, then phone screen with hiring manager.
Then the brought me in to meet with both the same people, in addition to hiring manager's boss, and a couple of people from other departments
Average process with 4 to 7 rounds of interviews spanning behavioral and technical interviews with executive and engineering staff. Prepared with past experience and cleared easily. Get through a referral and inside contact to have a better shot in the process.
