I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Boston, MA) in Nov 2018
Interview
First Interview : On phone - Technical : SQL (30 mins) Coding (Python, 30 mins)
4 SQL, 4 Python. Onsite coming up in few weeks.
Important to walk through your thought process while you code. Interviewer are very helpful. They will definitely give you hints, cash on them,
Prior to that, the HR provided sufficient practice material. Same, Leetcode, HackerRank.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
SQL : Top 3 Products by sale, % using Case, Basic Having clause and one Set operator (Intersect) type question
Python : Average word length, ip-address parsing, dictionary, list of lists, flatten list of lists. ( Similar to previous interview experiences)
I had Python and SQL round for 30 minutes each. The interview was for 1 hour 30 minutes for SQL and 30 mins for python coding.
Completed 5 questions each but still got rejection email the next day.
It was a contractual job , so the contractors reached out , they needed only SQL & Python proficiency. They explained the requirement and arranged the interview based on my availability.They were pretty efficient.I
