Entrevista
I got a call from Linkedin's internal recruiter. He has asked me about my work experience, am I willing to relocate. He has describe a bit about the job work load. As SRE isn't really what I have been doing, the job description he provided didn't really click with me. He has also asked some basic DNS lookup question, linux questions about what system calls related to listing files and what tool you can use to check I/O load. I passed this part. As I am a sys admin so this was easy for me.
The second interview was conducted by a junior technical staff in the team. The recruiter has sent me exactly what would be asked. HTTP browser request, how to monitor a website, to distribute loads of files fast and accurrately.
The interviewer did ask all these questions and a bit more. unfortunately I don't have experience with websites. I am more a sys admin. so i was just really guessing what i would have done. like detect via load balancer, error logs in apache etc.
I didn't get to the next stage.

The Hiring process was long, lasted over a month. I had an initial Hacker Rank coding round, followed by first round of interview, then second round and then final round which consisted of 4 rounds of interview.
I had referred previous interview experiences on Glassdoor and that helped to prepare. The questions were mostly similar. I got a rejection mail after the first round but then again I got a call for second round. They never answer when we call back. That's what I felt very bad about it.

First round was based on Networking. TCP/IP, ARP, DNS resolution, Sharding, Scaling, caching, server management concepts were covered.
Second round was scheduled only for Linux Memory management. Entire Memory management questions were asked. How it works, why is it required, Virtual memory, swap memory, swappiness and all.
System design was okay. They gave situations and asked how to design system in that scenario. We were allowed to ask questions to check if we were in tbe right track.
The last one was Troubleshooting
There was an Apache server and we had tk debug jt. It had 500 and 400 errors. I wasn't able to solve any in this round.

The process started with an online coding challenge. It had three coding questions around LeetCode medium level, one DBMS query, and around 20 MCQs involving Networks, DBMS, Linux, etc. Following that, there were two technical interviews and one host manager round. The first technical interview was a Service Architecture round where I was asked to scale a ride-hailing application to handle about 10000 requests/min. It was a 1.5 hour round. In the second interview, I was tested a lot on Data Structures, Networking, Linux administration, troubleshooting. Certain questions were very tough, like in what port do you attach your hard drive, but I guess they asked that to check our limits, and they weren't deciding questions. The last round was a Hiring Manager round close to a typical HR round, but I had certain technical questions about my projects.

Scale a ride-hailing application so that it handles ~10,000 requests/minute. This was a 1.5-hour-long discussion with follow-ups, including Consistent Hashing. They also challenged multiple of my design claims which I had to think about on the spot.
