I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Oct 2018
Interview
Gave my resume to a recruiter on campus and setup a phone interview. The interview was straight forward efficient string lookup from array of strings (the type of questions that are solved using a trie).
Thought I bombed the phone screening but got invited to an onsite. Onsite consisted of 2 technical interviews and a behavioral interview with a technical question at the end.

Question 1
Several tree questions. E.g. how to check if two BSTs have the same number of elements (linear time, constant space).
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.

Question 1
Move zeroes in an array to the end while keeping non-zero element order, in place
