Entrevista
There was an initial phone screen with the recruiter followed by a coding round. Never made it pass this round. Not to worry, it is not a tough exam, but your coding has to be on point in order to proceed.
Preguntas de entrevista [1]
Pregunta 1
Three questions were asked -
1) Fizzball (but with LinkedIn). Given an integer 1 to n, print "Linked" if divisible by 4 and "In" if divisible by 6 and "LinkedIn" if divisible by 4 and 6. Print the integer if it doesn't meet any of the above criteria.
2) Recursive API question. It's easy but tricky given the exam conditions. You are given an employee API URL to GET the names of an employee reporting structure. The JSON response returns the employee some othet key-value paor and the reports under the employee. The key here is to recognize the need to use recursion. At the very least mention it so they are aware you know what to do even if you don't get it completely correct.
3) You are given some logs with timestamp, process ids, log statement . You need to parse the the log file and print out in two columns the time stamp and the number of times the same process (or thereabout) shows up in the same time stamp (in order words column A has the time stamp, column B has the count). I think this needed to be outputted in CSV or something, but interviewer mentioned it didn't really matter.
Hope this helps someone ace their next interview with them.
Goodluck!

Two part phone screen followed by a five part virtual onsite which consists of four technical modules and one behavioral with a hiring manager. After the recruiter told me I had passed the process and I would be team matched I was ghosted.

Entrevista
A recruiter reached out to me on LinkedIn while I was already interviewing with other companies. There were two phone screens. First was a coding round and second one was linux and networking. The recruiter was very responsive and usually got back the very next day after each phone scree. They wanted to proceed with onsite and a new hiring coordinator took over and this is where the lacklustre response started. Virtual onsite process has not changed in years and its exactly as described by many people on this forum including the questions.
Once interview was completed, there was no response even after two weeks. I followed up multiple times and finally recruiter said they want to proceed with an offer but they are finding a right team. They thought that the my code review module did not go too well and they want to tag me with someone to ramp up in that area. After this communication recruiter stopped communication completely which was such a shameful behavior after boasting about how they care about leaving the interviewees hanging. Its been a month and there is still no closure. I had two other offers and I decided to pull out of LinkedIn process.
