I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta in Nov 2020
Interview
1. Phone screen with a recruiter with a couple of Android-related questions.
2. Phone screen with an Engineer where you are required to solve two problems.
3. Full round of interviews (Behavioral, problem-solving and System design)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They focus too much on the problem-solving questions, no matter how good of an Android Engineer you are or how well you did in the system design...
Leet Code questions over a voice call with screen share answering data structure and algorithm questions and trying to solve them within a timelimit explaining your working out. Interviewer was very nice.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Meta in June 2025
Interview
The interview process consisted of an initial phone screen followed by a full interview loop. It included coding challenges, system design, and behavioral questions. The recruiters were clear and supportive, and the process was well-structured.

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Meta in Apr 2024
Interview
Initial call with the recruiter, pretty standard on this one.
Once it is confirmed that I was going to move forward to the Online Screening, the recruiter shared resources to prepare mostly from the meta career site, which is quite comprehensive.
In the coding stage, I managed to solve just one question. Based on the feedback, that was the reason of not moving forward.

Question 1
Typical DSA question, medium difficulty but a bit tedious to implement which can take some time.
