I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Meta (Palo Alto, CA) in Jan 2017
Interview
Went for an in-person tech screen. Was a 45-minute session with an engineer in a meeting room with a whiteboard. I was given a pretty tough question, and didn't do a stellar job at answering, but I also didn't have any professional experience with C++, which he said was their primary language, so I guess it's understandable that they passed on me.

Question 1
Given a list of denominations (e.g., [ 1, 2, 5 ] means you have coins worth $1, $2, and $5) and a number k, find all possible combinations, if any, of coins in the given denominations that add up to k, including repeats.

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.
