I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at LinkedIn
Interview
Contacted Via LinkedIn, there was some scheduling issues, so process took 4 weeks.
2 people took my interview, senior and junior. Senior interviewer was late for the interview and joined in for last 15 mins of the interview. Junior developer was in the company for little over 2 months. So that was little weird, as junior person was not very articulate. LinkedIn profile that they send were different then the people who actually conducted the interview.
There was no actual contact with HR apart from email exchanges, basically they treat candidates as assembly line.
