Information about LinkedIn onsite interview
Hi Guys, I have an upcoming onsite interview with Linkedin for senior software engineer applications track. Can anyone who interviewed there share their experience and what they would helped/would have helped with Coding and system design rounds ? Also how is technical communication different from host leader round ? Thanks
Didn’t care that much about LinkedIn so I didnt look at their specific questions. Tbh I wasn’t asked anything over the top hard. Graphs/trees, recursion/DP lite
When I interviewed recently the recruiter shared this blog post from an employee with me https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/20140205163949-28614372-getting-that-job-at-linkedin/ My interviews were pretty standard. I wouldn’t expect anything different than a google interview.
How did your interview go?
How was your interview Op??
Tech comm is more about how can you communicate complex idea to your team members who know nothing about your project. Host manager is more about are you a LinkedIn culture fit, are you career focused and had a progression in a coherent manner.
Thank you. Do they except a powerpoint kind of presentation to explain an idea for technical communication ? Any pointers for whole preparation part in general ?
No, my interviewer asked me to talk and use the white board to diagram the components we own. but in that round I feel that I was being judged not just on explaining what my team does to another person, but also the complexity of what I do. If you work on an unexciting or basic application, it might be worth trying to think of how to spice it up. I interviewed for a senior role—other than that round, there was a hiring manager round where we just talked and he asked some situational team specific questions, two coding rounds (one was design a data structure that meets X criteria and the other was two leetcode mediums), this onboard a newbie round and system design a sharing feature round
