I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta in Dec 2017
Interview
Contacted by a recruiter, then scheduled a phone interview (2 questions leetcode easy-medium on coderpad). Moved to onsite but they asked me to make the 2 whiteboard code questions remotely. Passed the first-one, rejected after the second-one (even if my solution was O(n) and looking online it was used by other candidates that were given an offer). I feel that the interviewer was looking to a particular solution and if you don't find it you're rejected
Spoke with interviewer over video conferencing. He was very communicative . He answered my questions. Asked me BFS question. A question that involved BFS search. Given a matrix, I am suppose to find a path from top left to down right.

A question that involved BFS search. Given a matrix, I am suppose to find a path from top left to down right.
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.
