I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Meta (New York, NY)
Interview
6 back to back interviews, most interviewers friendly, except for one arrogant threatened interviewer. "Never" outshine the master as they say, never outshine the interviewer is all I'm going to say. They also ask questions to take ideas from you, so don't share your most brilliant ideas.
Applied online. Received a recruiter screen within two weeks covering background and role fit. Followed by a technical phone screen with coding (LeetCode medium-hard, arrays/graphs). Then a virtual onsite with 4 rounds: 2 coding, 1 ML system design (recommendation/ranking system), and 1 behavioral. Interviewers were professional and gave time to ask questions. Results communicated within a week post-onsite.
First stage was a screen round with behavioral and 2 leetcodes, one medium one hard, 15-17 min each. If selected, loop is 4-6 interviews. 2 desgin, 2 coding, 1 behavioral.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
idiotic questions that can't be answered in depth in 35 minutes design, like "your solution isn't going to work, how will you handle it?" yea no sht this is a baseline bro, wait 15 seconds and ill talk about the optimal one.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta (London, England)
Interview
Standard Meta process.
1. Recruiter Call
2. Screening Call
3. Onsite Calls -4 rounds (2 coding, 1 ML design, 1 behavioral)
Interviews were all nice except for behavioral. (wouldn't hurt to speak anything apart from okay-okay)
