I interviewed with LinkedIn in January 2016. The interview was conducted as part of an on-campus hiring process for the post of Site Reliability Engineer.
The first step was an online coding round, and 4 students were selected from a total of 150 students.
The interview focused on an in-depth knowledge of Computer Networks and Operating Systems. Also, I was asked for the solution to a coding question that I wasn't able to solve in the coding round. They wanted to check whether I had looked up the solution, and there was a discussion on the time complexity. The interviewers were helpful.
Questions on inode, bootstrap, filesystems, congestion control, etc.
The following metrics were computed from 8 interview experiences for the LinkedIn Site Reliability Engineer role in India.
LinkedIn's interview process for their Site Reliability Engineer roles in India is very selective, failing most engineers who go through it.
Candidates reported having mixed feelings for LinkedIn's Site Reliability Engineer interview process in India.
