I interviewed there a little while back. Behavioral Qs are pretty standard, though they may ask you about your favorite feature of LinkedIn and what would you improve upon so be ready for that. Cases are generally about their business model so definitely study their b2b and b2c offerings, revenue drivers (subscriptions and ad money), and competitive landscape. I actually received a case about a FAANG company so I was a bit unprepared for that. LinkedIn is all about closing what they call the “network gap” and ensuring every member of the workforce has equal employment opportunities

LinkedIn cares A LOT about cultural fit. There is an expectation that you know what our mission and vision is - to create economic opportunity for every member of the global workforce.

Hiring is very similar to Consulting hiring, you must have an advocate for you in the room (i.e. if everyone in the room thinks you’re a good candidate but no one will stand their ground for you, they’ll likely pass).

Managers are generally expected to do IC work as well (you can get up to Senior Manager without direct reports), so the case study does matter.

Most people on the team are former consultants, so they know how consultants generally work. Referrals and “vouches” from other people matter a lot especially within the same department / function.

Happy to answer any specific questions too.

I’ve been on a long term federal engagement (3 yrs) working as a business analyst supporting the product owner. Looking to move into industry doing similar work. Was speaking with a product owner at an insurance firm, and after looking at my resume he said his company would call me a product owner based on the day-to-day work I do. But from where I sit the PO is more senior than what I’ve been doing. Would it be disingenuous to describe myself as a product owner on my resume?

Can’t decide on a job offer. Currently employed and have been wanting to do something different. The other job offer is pretty much what I make now but I’d be losing on a lot of PTO. I kind of feel really confused about what to do. The hiring manager actually picked up on the fact that I don’t sound super excited for the job. But I feel like this is my chance to leave and do something different but I’m hung up on barely any PTO and swapping to a complete different industry.
