J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Meta (New York, NY) en nov. 2024
Entretien
Initial recruitement screen to gauge logistics and lightly peruse your background and interest.
First Technical round comprised of two leetcode medium difficulty problems under a time constraint of roughly 40 minutes for both. The interviewers may give hints to guide you, but too many hints might signal that you’re not meeting expectations.
Preparation Tips:
Familiarize yourself with the LeetCode 75 or 150 problems, focusing on medium-to-hard difficulty.
Practice coding in a pressure environment and explaining your approach as you go.
I didn't make it past the intial technical but here's an overview:
Q1 Focus: Optimization skills and problem-solving efficiency.
Q2 Focus: Ability to design and utilize custom data structures while demonstrating a deep understanding of algorithm complexity and performance trade-offs.

Question 1
Array Problem to assess medium difficulty Algo knowledge:
The problem involves testing whether you can optimize an
𝑂(𝑛^2) time complexity algorithm into an 𝑂(𝑛) solution. This typically requires identifying a more efficient approach, such as using hash maps, sliding windows, or prefix sums, depending on the context.
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
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

It's honestly striaght from leetcode tagged
There are no surprises if you do tagged you would be good and do well.
System design is much harder. Would recommend using hello interview.
