      Software Engineer Interview

      Sep 20, 2025
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Meta (London, England) in Mar 2025

      Interview

      I got contacted by a recruiter for London Software Engineer position. There were 4 interview stages. After a week I received a rejection email from a recruiter. Conclusion: solve a ton of leetcode, especially medium, and prepare to lead your interviews yourself.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      1. Call with a recruiter: first call to evaluate your expectations, tell about the company, and ask some default behavior questions. After that, I was scheduled a phone screen technical interview. 2. During the 45-min phone screen, I had to solve 2 Leetcode-style medium questions. You should be able to explain the solution, evaluate space & time complexity, write readable code. After that I got scheduled another call with a recruiter. 3. Recruiter told me the feedback from the phone screen, expectations from the next steps (onsite) and more behavioral questions. After that I got a link to provide my availability for a 4-interview-in-a-day. 4. Onsite consisted of 4 interviews, 2 algorithmic, 1 behavioral, 1 system design: a. The first algorithmic interview was almost the same as phone screen: 1 interviewer, 1 easy, 1 medium leetcode-style questions which I had to solve in 45 mins. The only bad experience in the whole process, but it was the worst technical interview I had in my life. The interviewer didn't care what I was writing, was looking away from the screen doing their own stuff like they had a deadline. I was talking with myself mostly. After I told about complexities, the interviewer asked 1 min later: can you tell me about time complexity of your code? Like, are you kidding me? I finished easy one in 10mins, but was debugging and explaining it for another 10mins, waiting for the second task. Disapproved only because of that, other interviews were fine. b. The second algorithmic interview had 2 interviewers: 1 shadow for getting interviewer experience, 2nd the actual interviewer. It was much better than the previous one. The interviewer was talking a lot, explaining, asking questions, engaged in the process. On top of 2 leetcode-style easy questions, this one required understanding the problem, asking clarifying questions, going in-depth into some topics like memory management. c. The behavioral interview consisted of default behavioral questions: tell about the time when you had an argument with a teammate, what experiences did you have, etc. d. The system design question involved discussing a new feature in one of Meta's products. Just a regular system design interview from books / youtube,

      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Meta

      Interview

      The technical round hit me with a classic array manipulation problem: moving zeroes to the end without disrupting the order of non-zero elements. As I tackled it, I felt a wave of familiarity wash over me; I had just practiced a similar challenge on PracHub. The rest of the interview followed a straightforward path, with some easy behavioral questions sprinkled in. Overall, it felt very easy, but I wasn’t quite the right fit for what they needed, so I didn’t receive an offer.

      Question 1

      Move zeroes in an array to the end while keeping non-zero element order, in place
