I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Feb 2024
Interview
I was referred by an employee in the research team, Then that person forwarded my resume to a hiring manager and later a recruiter reached out to me.
Overall, I had two rounds. One with Leetcode-type questions and another with my research-related questions.
One round for research discussion, discussing general research topics and interest. one round for technical interview, two questions are asked: one simple leetcode question, one pytorch related. All basic questions
