I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Nov 2016
Interview
Emailed recruiter who's email I had from last year's internship interview. Probably due to large amount of applicants, they kept losing my information and taking a very long time to get back to me. Took around 3 weeks to schedule a first-round phone interview.
After passing, I told them I had a deadline within a week - they were able to schedule an onsite that was 3 days later, and I received an offer 2 days after my onsite. Initial phone screen scheduling was frustrating, but they more than made up for it by getting back to me so quickly after the interview and working with my timeline.
The technical round hit me with a classic array manipulation problem: moving zeroes to the end without disrupting the order of non-zero elements. As I tackled it, I felt a wave of familiarity wash over me; I had just practiced a similar challenge on PracHub. The rest of the interview followed a straightforward path, with some easy behavioral questions sprinkled in. Overall, it felt very easy, but I wasn’t quite the right fit for what they needed, so I didn’t receive an offer.
