I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Meta in Mar 2025
Interview
There will be two interviews: one will focus on solving technical problems similar to LeetCode questions to assess your coding and algorithmic skills. The other is a background interview, which evaluates your past experiences, communication, and alignment with the team or role. Both are essential parts of the process.
It was not as expected. I had a coding round with Hard leetcode question. The second interview was easy flowing as I talked about my research projects and the interviewer asked questions.
My experience at the interview process was as follows: interviews were scheduled quickly, and the interviews were split between coding and research interview. It took a long time until a decision by meta was made, maybe due to the restructuring process going on at the same time.
