      Software Engineer Interview

      19 Oct 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Tel Aviv-Yafo
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Tel Aviv-Yafo) in Oct 2016

      Interview

      It's not an interview really, but a series of tests. Approached by a recruiter, had a phone conversation and then an on-site coding test (could also have been done by phone, but I live nearby). After another phone conversation with a recruiter who explained the process, came into their office for another series of four tests - 2 more coding tests, a design question and one with some vague personal questions and YACT (Yet Another Coding Test). Questions are not too difficult, but I'm assuming they expect near-perfect performance (mine was not :) Everyone was very friendly, positive and respectful, so even though I was rejected, all in all a positive experience - as someone often involved in recruiting myself, I think we can all learn a lot from how it's done there, especially when it comes to giving candidates a good feeling, regardless of outcome.

      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.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

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

      I applied online. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA)

      Interview

      It's honestly striaght from leetcode tagged There are no surprises if you do tagged you would be good and do well. System design is much harder. Would recommend using hello interview.
