I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Apr 2015
Interview
I had applied online for a summer internship. Recruiter reached out to me and scheduled phone interview. I got through first round phone interview. Second round was also phone interview. It went pretty well but I did not get an offer. Interviewers asked some basic questions about my background, projects etc. Then they spoke a bit about their background. Interviewers are friendly and helpful.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Given an array of integers, find three integers a, b and c such that a+b+c=0.
Modification: If the array is given in sorted order, can you do it without O(n) space?
Given a large input string, write a function to check if it is a palindrome, according to the following restrictions:
-lowercase and uppercase characters are considered equal
-special characters are ignored
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.
