I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Palo Alto, CA) in Aug 2024
Interview
The interview process at Meta was structured and thorough. It started with an initial recruiter screen, followed by a technical phone interview focused on data structures and algorithms. After that, I was invited to an onsite loop consisting of five interviews: two coding, one system design, one behavioral, and one focusing on problem-solving. Each interviewer was professional and provided clear instructions. They were also open to clarifying questions. Overall, it was a challenging but fair process.
