The screening process consisted of a 45-minute interview consisting of two Leetcode medium questions. I was also given the chance to do a Mock Interview with a Meta engineer. I didn't take the Mock Interview, and now I regret it.

Question 1
It was a Leetcode medium problem involving stacks. I would recommend doing all the stack problems from the "Grokking Coding Interview Patterns" course.
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
Overall, the process took a little over two weeks, which felt a bit longer than I anticipated. After a quick screening, I went through two technical rounds focusing on coding and DSA concepts. One of the questions was a classic palindrome check; mid-way through, I realized it was something I had practiced on PracHub just days earlier. The final step was a casual behavioral interview. I was relieved to get an offer shortly after, which I happily accepted.

Given a string, determine if it is a valid palindrome considering only alphanumeric characters and ignoring case.
