I expected too much of LinkedIn but was disappointed to see the interview process. I had a phone interview with two people and was called on-site a month later. There are a total of six rounds on-site.
Overall, my experience matches pretty much every interview experience that I've read on Glassdoor about LinkedIn. Even for a senior position, a few candidates enter the interview room who do not have any experience and have been with the company for not more than four months to a year.
In an algorithm interview round, the interviewer was himself unaware of the time complexity and was very rude. They don't allow you to speak, and you will only qualify if you produce code that they have memorized. It's really sad to see such incompetence from someone who works at LinkedIn. The junior employees at LinkedIn probably fear their positions being replaced if they hire a senior engineer who has been producing efficient production code for many years.
Their overall process is flawed, and I definitely would not want to work for such a company.
Very basic LeetCode questions. Nothing unexpected.
