Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 3 mesi. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso LinkedIn (San Francisco, CA) nel mese di mar 2021
Colloquio
Recruiter Phone Screen: Got email from recruiter for setting up a phone screen 1 month after applying to the role. Was asked to provide availability for Technical Phone Screen for the next week.
Technical Phone Screen: After a lot of back and forth, the technical phone screen (zoom video call) was scheduled 1 month after the initial Phone Screen. The 1 hour interview consisted of 10 mins introduction, 2 leetcode problems and 5 mins in the end for questions. Got the request to provide virtual onsite availability within a week of technical phone screen.
Virtual Onsite Interview: Scheduled a month after the previous interview. Consisted of 5 rounds having the standard format (10 mins introduction, focus of the interview, 5 mins at the end for questions): System Design Interview, Cultural Fit Interview with Hiring Manager, Team Collaboration Interview and 2 coding rounds.
The coding rounds started with a medium question (20-25 mins to solve and walk through the solution) and the interviewers expected a leetcode hard question to be solved within the last 15 minutes. That seemed like a very unrealistic expectation and led me to think if the question was just copied from somewhere without knowing its complexity. Overall, I understand that the interviewers expect the candidates to have exceptional coding skills but they should know the complexity level and time allotment for the questions asked.

Interviewed for an SDE role. The process was well-organized and the recruiters were responsive throughout. That said, the technical rounds were significantly more challenging than expected — definitely come prepared to go deep. Overall a valuable experience regardless of the outcome.
That was a real stroke of luck — when I got to the coding round and encountered a question on finding the maximum subarray sum, I had literally seen this exact problem on prachub.com a few days earlier. The interview kicked off with a recruiter screen, followed by a technical phone interview. It was intense, especially with the focus on algorithms and data structures. I also faced some behavioral questions that challenged my experience. After a final onsite round, I received an offer and happily accepted. Overall, it was tough but rewarding.

Given an integer array nums, find the contiguous subarray (containing at least one number) which has the largest sum and return its sum. Walk through Kadane's algorithm and explain the O(n) approach.

Overall, a good interview process and the team were very friendly during the interview process and it was very good and pleasant. Nothing in regard to negative feedback or anything as such like that.
