4 rounds of interviews including a first screening by a recruiter, then 2 rounds of technical interviews and a last "batch day" onsite round. The screening round was done by a recruiter who asked generally about skills and general understanding of the business of the company. The recruiter was friendly and knowledgable and told me on the spot that she was going to put me through. The 2nd round was a conceptual technical interview, asking about how you would solve certain HTML/CSS problems. The 3rd round was a technical interview done online through a code sharing platform. I was asked to write some HTML, CSS and javascript. Nothing too complicated. Both these two rounds were done by actual web developers--they were a little awkward, apologetic even but generally friendly and helpful in the process. The last round was an onsite round where they flew me out to their main campus in Mountain View. There were 4 interviews in total, 3 of which were technical and one was with a director to get my general understanding of the company. The other three interviewers were positive and helped me along the interview if I ran into problems. Just talking with them gave me great insight into the culture and the passion that the developers had for working at LinkedIn. Overall a great process.

I was recruited via Linkedin. First, had a call with a recruiter. Then, a technical interview with a web dev on the phone where you talk shop and they ask basic quiz-like questions (box model, accessibility, semantics, JS quirks, etc). Then two 45-minute phone interviews with code tests on CollabEdit. One was pure JS based (problem solving, not CS/algorithm stuff though. Recursion was necessary.), and then an HTML/CSS one where you get a picture of a module/component and you code what you see. Then an onsite interview which consisted of 4 whiteboard interviews which were mostly hybrid HTML/CSS/JS interviews, and a lunch interview with a director of web development. Nice to have an interview process where someone who knows front end development will succeed, over another stereotypical algorithms whiteboard thing where anyone besides a recent CS grad who studied Gayle's book would be disadvantaged.
