I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at LinkedIn (Chicago, IL) in Jul 2016
Interview
I applied via an internal referral link. After speaking with the referral coordinator, I progressed to a phone screen with the recruiter. Call went well, she said I was a great fit and aligned well with the role. At the end, I was told next step would be a call with the sales team. Well, one month after the phone screen and three unanswered emails later, she replied and said there had been a death in the family and would get back to me with feedback shortly. I followed up once from there but never heard back. Life 100% happens and I absolutely understand but one month+ of empty words is beyond unprofessional. My guess is she was avoiding having to deliver bad news. Isn't that a recruiters job tho? :/
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Behavioral questions. Walk me through your LinkedIn profile. Tell me about your current role. Elaborate on how you've reached the success you have. Why do you want to work for LinkedIn, etc.
3 in total, screening with the recruiter, competency based questions with the hiring manager then a 90 minute panel interview, which consisted of a presentation about you the candidate, a case study scenario, mock discovery and some more competency questions.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at LinkedIn (Kuala Lumpur) in Aug 2024
Interview
Nice HR recruiter. But the hiring manager is the worst human ever. He introduced himself as someone who was "passionate" about coaching people. But he is the most condescending and even making fun of my current employer, I was screaming internally to end the interview after 15 minutes in. I can't imagine for someone who needs to report to him.
