I have interviewed twice for the same position. My recommendation is to not bother based on my experience. LinkedIn - the supposed poster child of modern day hiring and sales tech, has a terrible candidate experience. It will make me smile as I read your articles flowing to my newsfeed about hiring best practices, when you don't practice what you preach. First time -> The positives: very excited, high touch, high professionalism Talent recruiter. I progressed to the final stage, presenting onsite in San Francisco to the decision maker. Approx 4 interview steps. The negatives : I had to follow up with the recruiter to learn that the team lead was not progressing with me, after giving ample time past the expected follow up date. No information was shared other than generic responses. This was really disappointing, considering the level of effort exerted. However, the recruiter offered to be an open door for the future. Second Time : approx 1 year later, I reapplied for the same position (posted as being in Sunnyvale). I contacted the recruiter from the first time and she said she would advise the recruiter of the posting. The "new" recruiter did contact me and we had a great discussion and she was putting me forward for the next stage. The positives : friendly initial screening call. The negatives : two separate follow ups, after ample time for delay to the originally expected response date (+2 weeks, +1 week) to finally get a practically canned response. I can only imagine the culture - despite their key tenets of which they say they are driven by, are unfortunately just marketing.

There were four rounds of interviews. Started with Phone screening from Recruiter, followed by hiring manager interview and thereafter peer interview and ended with panel interview. Panel interview consisted of a case study.
