      Applied Scientist Interview

      29 May 2026
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Mountain View, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at LinkedIn (Mountain View, CA) in May 2026

      Interview

      First round technical phone interviewed. Asked question about Leetcode medium, then a case study: LinkedIn partners with external course providers like Coursera and edX. A LinkedIn member can browse a target job (e.g., “Security Data Scientist at Google”), and LinkedIn wants to recommend a curriculum of courses that helps the member become qualified for that job.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Design a system (at a high level) that, when a member visits a specific job page on LinkedIn, recommends a set of courses (a curriculum) that will help the member move from their current state to being well-qualified for that job.
