I applied online. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Mar 2024
Interview
Recruiter call then 2 live coding exercises each 45 min. Did well on first, but second was on binary trees and I had not prepped for that. You will need to do a lot of leetcode prep even for PhD level roles.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
7 Interviews, didn't receive an offer after the final round. Time-consuming process, which includes multiple rounds of technical interviews (design, coding, behavior, etc.) and a 1-hour research talk. The team leader was unpleasant to interact with.
recruiter call, technical interview, research interview, and job talk (presentation), hiring manager interview, everything was organized in the website so it was easy to navigate through the process, and recruiter was always responding super quickly
