I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Meta in Feb 2024
Interview
I had one screening, one onsite consisting of two coding, two system designs, and one research and experience round.
My coding rounds went well. Each interviewer asked 2 questions. Research and experience round was good. The first SDI round went well but the second one was very bad.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
For the second SDI round, I was asked to design a Dropbox. The interviewer kept asking how the chunking of large files take place.
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
