Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California

Process

I was contacted by a recruiter, had an initial call, and then moved on to the technical phone screen.

The technical phone screen was pretty much what I expected from Glassdoor. I was given the impression that LinkedIn likes to ask multiple questions on the phone screen (and thus won't likely ask anything above uncommon LeetCode mediums), so I only practiced easy/medium questions that appeared with high frequency.

This paid off, as all the algorithms questions I was asked were on LeetCode (and asked in the exact same way as on LeetCode) and were all high-frequency questions.

In the end, I had to turn down the request for an onsite interview because I had accepted an offer elsewhere.
