I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Meta (New York, NY) in Feb 2025
Interview
It was a standard process in regards to FAANG.
Phone was from top leetcode. So was the onsite. Prepare your system design and behavioral questions. The behavioral interview was more robotic compared to a normal and not much back and forth. Unfortunately couldn't solve one of the technical questions due to lack on practice on that pattern.
Really friendly folks, asked several DSA questions that were quite challenging but they were reasonable with hints and questions. Several guards were there at the entrance which was intimidating. Overall a good experience but this is top notch.
3 rounds for the contract, 2 technical with leetcode style python. There was a phone screen, interview was a coding sharepad. It was good to meet the manager and 2 team members.
