The interview process was structured and moderately challenging, with a strong focus on both technical and problem-solving skills. It started with an initial recruiter screen, followed by a technical phone interview involving coding questions
After passing the phone round, I was invited to an onsite (or virtual onsite) consisting of 4 technical rounds and 1 behavioral. The process took around 2 months from start to finish.
Other Machine Learning Engineer Interview Reviews for Meta
The interview process went well, went through 2 coding rounds, 1 design and 1 behavior, the coding is two easy questions per round. I think the interviewer expect you to have a good understanding of the algo and want you to talk through it, instead of just implementing it.

Applied online. Received a recruiter screen within two weeks covering background and role fit. Followed by a technical phone screen with coding (LeetCode medium-hard, arrays/graphs). Then a virtual onsite with 4 rounds: 2 coding, 1 ML system design (recommendation/ranking system), and 1 behavioral. Interviewers were professional and gave time to ask questions. Results communicated within a week post-onsite.
First stage was a screen round with behavioral and 2 leetcodes, one medium one hard, 15-17 min each. If selected, loop is 4-6 interviews. 2 desgin, 2 coding, 1 behavioral.
