there was the coding round first which had two questions of moderate difficulty, this was followed by the interview which also had moderate difficulty of about 1200-1400 rated codeforces questions
Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 2 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en LinkedIn (Bengaluru) en sept 2025

Off-Campus LinkedIn SDE Intern 2025
I recently went through the LinkedIn SDE Intern (2025) hiring process (Off-Campus).
Process Overview:
Round 1: Resume Shortlisting – My application was shortlisted based on academic background and project work.
Round 2: Online Assessment (OA) – Consisted of 2 DSA coding problems:
Best Sum Downward Tree Path – Implemented a DFS-based solution to compute the maximum downward path sum in a tree represented by parent-child relationships.
Minimize Maximum Vulnerability – Solved using binary search + greedy to select non-adjacent servers minimizing max vulnerability.
Both solutions passed all test cases.
Outcome:
Although I cleared both rounds, I was not selected for further stages.
Takeaway:
This experience gave me great exposure to tree-based DP, binary search on answer, and greedy problem-solving, and reaffirmed the importance of writing clean, optimal code under time constraints.

Pregunta 1
Implement a function to compute the maximum sum of any downward path in a tree represented by a parent array and node values.
It had a online assessment and the questions were directly from codeforces, there was a difficult question with modular inverse, it was a pnc question kinda did it using dp but was wrong , read about fermats little theorem

A question about modular inverse basically had a pnc problem
