I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta (Seattle, WA) in May 2024
Interview
Had a call with a recruiter for basic screening, then two technical screening interviews. Each one was about 45 minutes, the first one being coding and the second troubleshooting. The coding portion was definitely the most complex, with one relatively easy data structures question and one describing handling standard out.
The interviewer for my coding portion wasn't looking at the screen half the time, and was smiling and laughing like he was reading Reddit or something. He corrected me several times with wrong information.
