I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Seattle, WA) in Apr 2023
Interview
I had a behavioral interview then a coding interview which was the more difficult portion. For the coding interview, there were 2 rounds of coding with the same interviewer. The second round was 45 minutes or so with 2 questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The first question was an array question that was easily solved with 1 for loop
The process is straightforward and designed to help us get to know each other. It moves through a few stages at a comfortable pace, involves conversations with several team members, and focuses on making sure it's a good mutual fit.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
Had an initial recuriter call and then scheduled a coding round with 2 leetcode questions. Practicing Meta-tagged leetcode questions would help prepare for this round. Interviewers expect clear communication and code.
Generic LeetCode-style questions, many tagged as Meta, so extensive preparation is required to perform well in the technical interview. The experience varies significantly - some interviewers provide hints and guidance, while others expect candidates to solve problems independently with minimal assistance.
