So the process started very nice! A recruiter reached to me about solution engineering positions, I found them very interesting so I decided to give it a go. We had an initial phone screening and he decided to continue with a technical phone screen which I passed and was then scheduled for a full interview cycle. The full interview was actually very good. I consider it to be one of the best interviews I ever performed at, which was backed up by the interviewers telling me more than once feedback comments like "Great, this is exactly what I was looking for" and things like "This is really good" So I finished knowing for a fact that I got the job. The interview was on Friday, the recruiter told me that I will get the answer the next week, probably in the middle of the week but at most near the end of it. On Saturday, I sent an email to the recruiter thanking him for the opportunity and waited for the feedback. On Thursday, I thought maybe I should ping him to get an auto respond back that he left to take a vacation and will return after a week! Yes! He seriously did that without bothering telling me any damn thing! So I sent an email to the interview coordinator asking her about feedback, she got me one of his colleagues to tell me that the team decided not to pursue further and I should get in contact with the recruiter to know why! Just like that! So I sent another email to the recruiter asking why this happened since I have been doing that for over 17 years and it's almost impossible for me to walk out of an interview that I feel was 100% and get a response like that and until today, ZERO responses back! I consider this to be super disrespectful from their side and it placed a huge red flag on Facebook for me! If they can't even respect me enough to reply back to my emails once they decided not to continue, then this is a place I never want to work in ever!

A typical Meta software engineer interview process: starts with a recruiter conversation, followed by two coding assessments, a system design session, managerial meeting, behavioral evaluation, and two LeetCode-medium coding interviews.
