I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Sept 2017
Interview
I did on-site initial screen. In which I answered almost three technical questions and had very good interactions with the interviewer. So I left feeling pretty positive, there was no followup after that for another week and a half. After touching base with the recruiter, they took another couple of days and was followed by a rejection email.
Wish I would have gotten some sort of feedback, as I answered everything optimally and also had good feedback from interviewer and conversation afterwards.
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.
