      Software Engineer Interview

      No offer

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Meta

      Interview

      Had a phone interview followed by on site. Phone interview was good and the interviewer was very friendly. During onsite, I had about 5 one one one interviews. My interviews started on a bad note - the recruiter was late to pick me up from the lobby and my first interviewer came 10 minutes late. He then rushed me into a system design question. I outlined the initial design and checked with him if there were any specific directions he wanted to go into but got no response. I then kept working on the design question without him giving me any feedback. When there were only 5 minutes left, he started asking some questions on how some scenarios would work. I always thought that interviews were supposed to be a discussion rather than the candidate talking and other people listening but perhaps its different at Facebook. Other interviews were also average - my third interviewer was a girl who seemed too full of herself and kept being very sarcastic. My fourth interviewer hardly showed any interest in my thesis work though he was a very experienced guy so its possible, they are able to absorb everything without even listening.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Meta

      Interview

      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.

      Question 1

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