Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 4 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Meta en abr 2015
Entrevista
I had applied online for a summer internship. Recruiter reached out to me and scheduled phone interview. I got through first round phone interview. Second round was also phone interview. It went pretty well but I did not get an offer. Interviewers asked some basic questions about my background, projects etc. Then they spoke a bit about their background. Interviewers are friendly and helpful.
Preguntas de entrevista [2]
Pregunta 1
Given an array of integers, find three integers a, b and c such that a+b+c=0.
Modification: If the array is given in sorted order, can you do it without O(n) space?
Given a large input string, write a function to check if it is a palindrome, according to the following restrictions:
-lowercase and uppercase characters are considered equal
-special characters are ignored
Got a referral through a friend who worked at Meta, which sped up the entire process. After a casual initial chat, I went through a technical interview where I faced a DSA question about validating palindromes. The interviewer was friendly but rigorous. During prep, I had spent time with the coding challenges on PracHub, and it was funny to see a similar palindrome question pop up. Overall, I received an offer, but ultimately decided to decline it after careful consideration.

Pregunta 1
Given a string s, return true if it can be a palindrome after deleting at most one character (Valid Palindrome II).
Recruiter call was pretty standard, first round was 2 Meta tagged LC mediums in 45 minutes. On-site was 2 coding sessions of 2 LC mediums, a system design interview and a behavioral interview with an engineering manager.

Pregunta 1
How do you answer if someone asks how long a deliverable or project will take?
The entire process usually takes 3–8 weeks, depending on scheduling and the specific role. Coding interviews heavily emphasize common DSA topics such as arrays, strings, trees, graphs, BFS/DFS, heaps, hash maps, and dynamic programming. System design becomes increasingly important for E4+ positions.
