I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
This is a 45 minutes video call interview, and there are two coding problems. You are asked to write code on a shared codepad.io link. You are not required (actually you are not able) to run the program, but you are required to walk through examples for the code that you wrote.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Quite standard. One related to data structure, and another is related to binary search.
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.
