Very clear and straight forward, but maybe a bit too broad. Would be better to be more focused on the area of expertise. Coding questions don't really make much sense for data scientists anymore, basic level yes but not hard coding questions.
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at LinkedIn (Sunnyvale, CA) in Oct 2022
Interview
Wasn't really an interview. Interviewer wasn't really prepared for the interview. Recruiter said I would be interviewed as a mobile engineer but they sent a full stack engineer to interview me, who had no idea on what I was talking about. Interviewer instead tried to assess my seniority based on the number of people I had an influence over. Was asking questions about conflict resolution but wasn't really interested in the answer because it appeared that they had already made up their mind. Feedback was passed along directly to the recruiter right after the interview and recruiter sent a vague rejection right away, making it appear that they would consider me for other roles. Overall it was a pretty negative experience considering the interviewer cut the interview short. Ironic considering that LinkedIn is in the hiring and recruiting business.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Interviewer: Describe a challenging problem you are working on?
Interviewer: Have you had any conflicts at all? Question posed in a way that assumed that I likely wouldn't have any conflicts to talk about, it felt like a rhetorical question because the interviewer was looking for reasons to cut the interview short.
There were to be 5 interviews total: first the hiring manager; second, with the team; then a an assignment/presentation; and, a panel interview with senior leadership. It seemed straight forward but unnecessary to have 5 interviews.
