I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at LinkedIn in Sep 2016
Interview
The recruiter asked me both general and LinkedIn-specific questions, and introduced me to what kind of work LinkedIn does. For the hiring process, the next step is a technical interview over the phone, and it was scheduled immediately during my general interview.
I was out of town for a conference on that day, and I asked the conference organizer for a spare room to do the phone interview. Fortunately, my presentation was scheduled on a different day.
PS: This is an internship position.
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
List three things that interest you the most in the Machine Learning internship.
I applied online. I interviewed at LinkedIn (New York, NY)
Interview
The interviewer was in a very loud room and I couldn't even hear him. The interviewer was young and ambitious but very rude. He never gave me the chance to finish a sentence, often interrupted and apparently irritated by my answers. Eventually, I was asked to answer some corner cases questions about bayesian classifier on which, of course, I failed. I never remember all the formulas and all the mathematical corner cases, unless it's something important!
From another point of view, I am glad I didn't end up with that group. Can't tolerate for too long someone who's always interrupting and disrespectful.
