I applied online. I interviewed at LinkedIn (Seattle, WA) in Mar 2019
Interview
I got referred by a LinkedIn connection, then a recruiter contacted by the end of the week. A phone call was scheduled first, where I was asked to talk about my work, why am I interested to work in LinkedIn and my relevant experience. After around 3-4 weeks a technical interview was scheduled, the name of the interviewer was emailed to me before the interview.
