I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Nov 2021
Interview
Applied through a referral, then a university recruiter reached out to me, and scheduled the first round.
During the first round, I was asked 2 questions (20 minutes each) and the difficulty of the questions was between Leetcode medium and hard.
After that, there was a second round called "virtual onsite round" and the difficulty of the questions were leetcode medium. The interviewer was pretty much blank during this round. However, I found that this round was relatively easier compared to the previous round.
I was able to solve both the questions in the second round but I missed a major edge case. Maybe that's why I got rejected.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. Find the smallest substring having a certain set of characters
2. Find the product of all the subsets of a given set of numbers
Can't tell you about the 2 other questions that were asked in the 2nd round as I've signed an NDA with Meta.
no referral, directly applied online.
1 takehome with blue jean
2 technical rounds
- easy lc in first round
- easy-medium lc in second round
that was sufficient for intern level interview
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
First step in person (University recruiting), two coding problems at the blackboard and 5 minutes for questions to the interviewer.
Second step remotely. A quarter behavioural and the rest three quarters of an hour for 2 coding problems.
I felt a strong connection to the interviewers.

Question 1
Motivations that brought me there.
Questions about SWEish experiences I had through my university career, both general (topic like particular challenges, collaboration) and more specific (experience with particular libraries).
Did the OA, the OA was 4 questions, passed, and then had an interview with a software engineer at Meta - still waiting to hear results back! I took it yesterday so fingers crossed
