I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (San Francisco, CA) in Dec 2016
Interview
Met a recruiter at the Swift Summit in San Francisco. I then had a 45 min phone call with the recruiter and then a 45 min technical phone screen in which I coded on a screen sharing IDE. I did not move on to an on-site interview.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Return the head node of the singly linked list with each pair of nodes swapped. If there is a last odd node leave it in place.
Example:
Input: 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4 -> 5
Output: 2 -> 1 -> 4 -> 3 -> 5
Take in an Int array and move all the zeroes to the end in place. It doesn’t matter how the non-zero numbers are ordered. Preferably as efficient and as space efficient as possible.
Example:
Input : [ 3, 0, 2, 0, 0, 4, 1, 0 ]
Accepted Output: [ 4, 2, 3, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0 ]
Pretty standard interview process for FAANG/MANGA companies. Initial call with a recruiter, preliminary coding interview, on-site that spanned two days (because I asked) and a follow-up interview. The on-site interview consisted of 3 coding interviews, 1 behavioral, and 1 system design interview.
