I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at LinkedIn (San Francisco, CA) in Mar 2021
Interview
One of the worst big tech interviews I've done.
- Interviewers lacked passion about their job, clearly in the "rest-and-vest" mode. Work-life balance shouldn't be the #1 reason for staying at LinkedIn. Immediate red flag.
- Very slow process. My coordinator apologized that everyone was very busy. Based on my interactions, it seemed like people just didn't want to work.
- My recruiter said I was being interviewed for a specific role and that LinkedIn was no longer doing a generalist PM interview ... About a week later, I got another recruiter reaching out for a generalist PM position (my first interview hadn't happened yet).

I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at LinkedIn
Interview
First round was with the hiring manager, the question caught me off guard. The hiring manager was respectful but I wish he would've walked me through what he was looking for.
