J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez LinkedIn (San Francisco, CA) en juin 2019
Entretien
Phone screen interview. It was as I expected it to be with minimal to no interaction with the interviewer during the coding questions. You would have to be really good figuring out optimal solution in given time or solved the question before hand. I was given a problem that required using a modified version of binary search. I was able to explain my approach but got caught up in the implementation part. The 2nd problem was easier since its on leetcode. Altho it was optimal and the code format was easy to follow, the feedback on the formatting was not good. I thought that's unfair. Another problem I had was I gave explanations to approaches for my solutions before and after coding. The feedback said I didn't communicate while coding. Not sure what the standard was for commination. It felt like I could say the same about the interviewer's communication.

Question 1
1) given list is sorted characters and given input character, get the character if present and if not get the closest character in the array that appears before it alphabetically.
2) shortest word distance 2 in leetcode.
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.

Questions - Regular Medium level question, string manipulation
Follow up - Concurrency related on top of the first question.
Waiting for the second round right now

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.
