I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at LinkedIn (Sunnyvale, CA) in Jan 2017
Interview
1st - Recruiter. 2nd - Hiring PM, 3rd - Onsite with team members, 4th - Execs
I am still on the 3rd phase of the interview. The onsite takes about 4 hours with 45 minute each slots for each panelist. You will meet with an engr manager, data science manger, and PMs from various teams.
Interview questions [6]
Question 1
Describe how you would pitch Microsoft CEO that linkedin is a good acquisition
A/B testing question - how would you test a certain linkedin feature. In my case it was 'people you may know' feature. How would you initially think about it when you don't have any data to base the decision off of?
OK, nothing to brag about, clear discussion of the past experience, asking about how did you navigate difficulties , what is the starter to build networking and what are the tool so product management
I had 5 rounds of 45 min interviews. Not super memorable very straightforward product interview case questions. People were nice, but no behavioral. HM seemed toxic and wanted someone to commit whole life to role.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at LinkedIn (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
Made it to final rounds with VP. Didn’t get offer. Recruiter followed up, interviewed for another role and received offer after a few days. Process was pretty standard with product strategy questions. You do interview with a specific area so anticipate questions related to the area as well.
