I Asked LinkedIn Software Engineers How To Get Hired
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 лип 2024
- Today, I walk around LinkedIn headquarters and ask LinkedIn software engineers how to get into LinkedIn and if they have any other advice. I also ask them for their opinions on AI and if it'll take our jobs. You'll want to watch till the end because many of these engineers have over 10 years of experience and interview candidates like you every single day. Today, they finally reveal all their secrets.

In this market, it's the roll of the dice.
Seems like these people were lucky with timing, they got into the industry around 2020 or before and don't really understand how difficult it is to even get interviews nowadays. I remember I saw a video where they said if you were to see Google employees resumes from 2020 and compare it to what's required nowadays, they would be automatically disqualified by most hiring managers these days because the bar to entry and expectations has gotten unreasonably more higher now
As a Microsoft SWE, advice is to focus on soft skills. Engineering skills are still important, but if you demonstrate a willingness to learn and have strong communication/soft skills. You will be so far ahead of other candidates, even if you end up bombing a leetcode style interview. Teams want someone that they can collaborate with easily and effectively. Passion shines through on interviews, I feel that's why companies will invest in non-traditional graduates like the employee in this video. They have broken out of their traditional background because they have a genuine interest in tech and usually aren't just in it for the paycheck.
What would one do to improve these skills @lolgubstep
Thanks for this, my soft skills need a lot of work 😅
This is really great stuff here and very sound advice.
Can't wait to sit down in front of a computer all day and do work i love
Congrats to you all on your success. Well deserved. Hard work pays off.
thanks man!
Great interviews!
thanks for watching :)
I am taking the Meta FrontEnd course. It is a great course. When I will finish it I will do the Fullstack course by university of helsinki to improve my knowledge
ahmad is so real lol
a homie for real
So, the senior software engineer... my man right there has seen some stuff. You could tell when he responded the management position question.
haha all senior engineers have seen the most 😬
awesome video!
thanks ben!
They all sound like they just got on the hype train in 2021 and 2022 and got in easy, don't seem to know much either other than the senior staff swe. people giving interviews now prob have more skills then them after 2 years there.
I miss this kind of videos ❤❤
many more coming
@@namanhkapur waiting
Hi @namanh, it's me mammadu, the guy you interviewed
Unfortunately my name is spelled incorrectly in this video - you used the typical french spelling 'Mamadou' but my name is spelled 'Mammadu'. Could you correct thisnin the video when you get the chance?
yooo thanks for being in the video, sorry about the spelling but there’s no way to change text on a video after it’s published- i’ll make a note in the description!
Which country are your parents from Mammadou
Hey,
I am interested in joining you as a video editor,i am working from last 3 years on various projects as a freelancer
Know it alls, people who cannot speak to others but super technical to not get hired for good reason. I'm Senior SE and someone who knows how to work in a team and pleasant to work with is better than high iq guy
God forbid anything happens🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Can LinkedIn engineers try their search functionality?
☕️
Nice video, can you also make a video on Flipkart Grid, they are hiring for 32 lakhs.🤑
what’s that
no one ever mentions codewars
it is super but you know it is Russian of cource they never ever mentioned about it
@@mando2908 ???? Codewars is not Russian
@@basicvince yea I thought Codewars and Codeforce are same a little bit onfused soryy wrong information. But Codeforce is Russian and I am not Russian btw but I recommend the Codeforce too. There are awsome problems over there.
Do not disclose anything that the recruiter/hiring manager needs to know.
Do not say anything that raises doubt or suspicion from your prior work experiences or previous duties.
its not coding its who sent you
it’s not the end result it’s the friends you make along the way
well well well, notice a pattern ? now yuo see. But what could this mean 🤔
what pattern?
@@ege8240 they were all hired in ~2021which was the easiest time to get a software engineering role, just implying that its so unfair
@@pastori2672i got hired earlier this year, it's just a matter of luck and timing
They are lying to you when they say that they're not scared of AI . I'm going into tech not as a coder but as a network engineer and I can tell you there's a lot to be afraid of when it comes to AI. The real problem comes when these geniuses decide to put AI on a Quantum chip and that day is definitely coming within the next 10 years maybe less.
cringe fear mongering kinda like this cringey vid
AI isn't going to take your jobs. It learns on what it's trained to do. People still need to train them and there still needs to be people to actually create products. AI doesn't have the ability to do that. It doesn't have creativity the way people do. Most of the stuff AI can do right now has been around for a pretty long time it just hasn't been publicly available like it is now. Now people who are just entering the industry or not in it see what AI can do and are terrified. You don't need to be. You need to learn how to utilize it and how it works so you can reverse engineer it and make it better. If you're terrified of AI while in school you're going into the wrong industry.
you are throwing bunch of buzzwords around man. quantum computing thing was abandoned long ago, now investors try to get at least academic returns from it.
ai is more likely to get rid of trade jobs than swe
Find more women to interview for the girls please 🙏🏻🙏🏻
In this diversity hiring time, you can't get hired? you must suck so hard lol
i try but they reject me
