J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 6 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez LinkedIn (Sunnyvale, CA) en déc. 2017
Entretien
I have been interviewed by Linkedin before, this time they reached out me again. Still same process, one phone interview, it went well, then on-site, two coding, one tech communication, one system design, one behavior analysis. I didn't get offer, this is OK for me. But the feedback is weird, which is I am strong in system design and tech communication, but weak on algorithm. But thing is what the interviewer asked I've practiced in leetcode, I am pretty sure my solution is correct. I also put the solution in my GitHub repo. I guess for coding part, this company should have a score system instead of someone said it's right or not. Otherwise this is wasting people's time.

The phone screen was more intense than I'd anticipated, lasting about 45 minutes with a mix of behavioral and technical questions. They probed my understanding of system design, specifically challenging me to think through a notification delivery service. I felt prepared, thanks to the company-specific questions I found on PracHub that outlined similar scenarios. The final rounds focused heavily on the scalability and reliability of systems. After a series of interviews, I received an offer, which I happily accepted. Overall, it was a rigorous but rewarding experience.

Question 1
Design LinkedIn's notification fan-out service that delivers post-engagement notifications (e.g. someone reacted to your post or commented on your article) to millions of subscribers in near real-time, including how you would handle 'hotspot' creators with millions of followers, deduplicate redundant notifications when many actions target the same content, and guarantee at-least-once delivery across regional failures.

Entretien
Was greeted by a person who basically walked me around the office during my interview, did a couple of rounds with a group on a whiteboard solving a coding challenge, and one to solve a software architecture challenge. Had lunch onsite. And one round of interview with someone who wasn't technical.
