      Bengaluru
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at LinkedIn (Bengaluru) in Aug 2023

      Interview

      1. Online Coding Round This round is generally conducted on the Hackerrank platform and includes 3-4 programming questions that need to be solved in 2 hours. The coding round is generally meant for freshers and on-campus hires; experienced professionals are not required to take this round – they can directly appear for an interview. The level of questions asked is medium to hard. Besides coding questions, there can be MCQs on DBMS, operating systems, object oriented programming, networking, data structure and Unix. 2. Technical Interview Round 1 Once you clear the online coding round, you will need to appear for onsite face-to-face interviews on data structures and algorithms. The round lasts for an hour and includes your introduction to the interviewer plus coding questions to be implemented and explained. They might also ask you questions related to your past experiences, projects that you worked on, your preferred technologies, etc. The difficulty level of LinkedIn common interview questions is easy to medium. 3. Technical Interview Round 2 Another face-to-face coding round to test your problem solving skills in data structures and algorithms. Here, you’ll get some coding problems in addition to questions on problem-solving with data structures and algorithms, projects, skills, internships, past experiences, and more. The duration is flexible, according to the interviewer’s preference. The level of difficulty of one coding question is easy to medium, while the other one is medium to hard. 4. System Design Round This round is generally for experienced candidates and lasts for about an hour. You can be given a problem where you have to design a shared drive file system, including its database design, high level architecture, tackling problems about scaling up, etc. the aim is to test your skills and expertise in software design. 5. Managerial Round Once you clear all the technical rounds, you’ll need to appear for the managerial round taken by the team manager who you’ll work with if you’re hired. This is the most interesting and interactive round – conducted mainly to assess if you’re fit for the team and the project for which you are being considered. The questions can be about the challenges you faced in previous projects, your contribution, and other exciting questions. You might also be asked to give real-time suggestions for LinkedIn.
