I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Meta (San Francisco, CA) in Oct 2017
Interview
Referred by an employee in Facebook, then I got an email from Facebook to set up an interview over phone. The email was received after around two weeks waiting, and the phone interview was 4 days later.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The interview question is the "decoding ways" in Leetcode. That is suppose we have a decoding role: 1-A, 2-B,....26-z; then return how many decoded sequences we can obtain for a given string of digits.
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.
