I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (San Francisco, CA) in Mar 2016
Interview
Contacted by a recruiter and an online screening of an algo problem. The whole process was very positive and everyone was very professional.
The technical questions were easy and the interviewer extremely helpful.
On the first call they tell you about the company in general and some of the benefits, they also explain the whole process of the interview (generally 3 steps).
Then the technical interview is on a shared text editor.
1 leetcode med, 1 leetcode hard. make sure you know your DSA and leetcode questions. I wasn't able to get an offer bc i didnt complete the second question. Got a reply 2 days later saying they would move on
Overall, the process took a little over two weeks, which felt a bit longer than I anticipated. After a quick screening, I went through two technical rounds focusing on coding and DSA concepts. One of the questions was a classic palindrome check; mid-way through, I realized it was something I had practiced on PracHub just days earlier. The final step was a casual behavioral interview. I was relieved to get an offer shortly after, which I happily accepted.
