I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Mar 2012
Interview
A short initial phone chat with the recruiter (Who was excellent, even offering tips for the main interview) and then a technical phone interview with a developer.
The developer I spoke to was great, seemed like a nice guy and managed to pose some tough technical questions without seeming combative.
They got back to me within a couple of days to let me know they wouldn't be taking it further.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Worked through a few coding questions using a shared document, getting progressively more complicated and then went through a sort of thought exercise regarding the limits of the proposed solution in terms of constraints like bandwidth, CPU speed, memory and how performance could be improved without re-writing the basic algorithm.
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.

Question 1
Move zeroes in an array to the end while keeping non-zero element order, in place
1 leetcode med, 1 leetcode hard. make sure you know your DSA and leetcode questions. I wasn't able to get an offer bc i didnt complete the second question. Got a reply 2 days later saying they would move on
