The process took 1 week. I interviewed at LinkedIn (Mountain View, CA) in Feb 2012
Interview
I found a guy from LinkedIn posted a twitter saying he accept resumes. I send my resume and expressed my interest. About several days latter he contacted me for arranging a phone interview.
He first asked about my experience, and we discussed a little about what he's being doing. Then he give the question like how to find the second larges element in a binary search tree.
