Linkedin - SSE System and Infra Role- First Screening Round experience - waiting for the next update
Summary
I recently completed my first technical screening round for an SSE System and Infra Role at Linkedin. The round included a coding question similar to LeetCode's Number of Islands and a discussion on my past projects and OS fundamentals. I am currently awaiting an update on the next steps.
Full Experience
I recently completed my first technical screening round for an SSE System and Infra Role at Linkedin. The interview started with a coding question that was quite similar to LeetCode's Number of Islands (Problem 200). I spent a good portion of the time working through that problem. Following the coding segment, the interviewer shifted to a discussion about my past projects, where I talked about some of my relevant experiences. We also delved into some operating system basics. It was a comprehensive round, and I'm currently waiting to hear back about the next steps.
Interview Questions (1)
A coding problem similar to LeetCode problem 200, Number of Islands. The problem typically involves given an m x n 2D binary grid which represents a map of '1's (land) and '0's (water), and you need to count the number of islands. An island is surrounded by water and is formed by connecting adjacent lands horizontally or vertically. You may assume all four edges of the grid are all surrounded by water.
