I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta (San Diego, CA) in Nov 2024
Interview
Entered through a recruiter, Tundra Technologies, as a contingent employee.
8 hour online assessment with coding questions in eight different programming languages i.e. C++, Python, Java, HTML/CSS, Go, PHP, SQL, Bash.
30 minute one on one video interview
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you stay current with the latest technology?
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.
