I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at LinkedIn (London, England) in Nov 2024
Interview
3 rounds of interviews about 30 -45 mins each. Great structure, questions and down to earth panel. Made it to the final round but runner up selection. Appreciated the feedback from HR.
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at LinkedIn (Dubai) in Jan 2023
Interview
Very smooth interview firstly TA call from Dublin asking about sales experience. Then with Hiring Manager (STAR style interview), then with panel which would be case interview. After that decision by call or email from manager. It also seems that Linkedin Dubai office runs a tight ship, everyone arab seems to be from the same nationality and they would not want to have someone who is not from the same place as them as it will not be fit for their culture. Nevertheless, extremely professional and as expected.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at LinkedIn (Bengaluru)
Interview
Typically involves multiple stages focused on assessing a candidate’s customer email writing skills, problem-solving skills, communication abilities, and alignment with LinkedIn's values. Panel Interviews (1–3 Rounds)
These could be virtual or in-person.
a. Behavioral Interview
Based on the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result).
Sample questions:
“Tell me about a time you dealt with a difficult customer.”
“How do you handle high-stress situations?”
“Describe a time you received feedback and acted on it.”
b. Operational/Functional Interview
Focuses on tools, processes, and problem-solving.
Sample scenarios:
Escalation handling for account lockout or policy violations.
Use of internal systems or SOPs to resolve issues.
c. Values Fit & Culture Interview
LinkedIn emphasizes compassion, integrity, and transformation.
You may be asked how you align with their culture of transformation and inclusion.
🔹 5. Hiring Manager Interview (Final Round)
Deep dive into your previous experience, especially metrics-driven impact.
You may also be evaluated on cross-functional collaboration and potential for internal growth.
