I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Apr 2021
Interview
I was rejected in phone screen round. The question that was asked was not a very well defined problem - the question was changed after some time (after I gave a generic solution after which the interviewer realized that the problem was too hard). I could only solve 1 problem - was not accepted on the grounds of speed (they expected me to solve 2 problems in 40 minutes).
