I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Sep 2017
Interview
Applied through a referral. Had a telephonic interview. The interviewer was really helpful and nice. Could solve both the questions. I was called for an onsite which had three rounds, two were coding and one was behavioral with coding. Great experience! Not sure what they really look for. Thought it went pretty well.
Create a random number generator from that will generate a random number from a list of numbers, with the probability proportional to the magnitude of the number.
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
