Interview Question for Analytics Scientist at LinkedIn:
Oct 20, 2009

1 of 1 people found this helpful

I was asked about the way I would design the "people you may know" application of LinkedIn and about the way I would group "similar" people and jobs with people etc. More or less it was a discussion about collaborative filtering , classification and prediction models (k-means clustering, bayesian model, decision trees ).

The interview was more like a "walk through a problem" discussion than an exams-type questionnaire which was a really fun and interesting experience. The talk was very casual (less stressful than usual) and felt as if we were colleagues working on an actual LinkedIn challenge.
