I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
The interviewer came 10 minutes late and I had another interview directly after this one, so my time reduced from 45 to 35 minutes. It was my first interview and didn't know what to expect.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Given a dictionary, find all pairs of words that, when concatenated together, form a palindrome.
Examples:
‘none', 'xenon': 'nonexenon' is a palindrome
'none', 'xexenon': 'nonexexenon' is a palindrome
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.
