Interview
The interview process for the internship position consisted of two phone interviews. The first interview was more about my past experience and had a single programming question. During the interview you're supposed to code the solution in a language of your choice. The interviewer will see what you're coding as you type and make mistakes. By doing so they have insights on how you approach programming problems.
The second interview had two programming questions with similar degree of difficulty.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The first problem was the classical "reverse a linked list" problem. It's easy, but may make you feel nervous as getting the pointer manipulation right may be tricky.
I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Meta in May 2014
Interview
The recruiter was excellent and quickly scheduled the first interview, but the manager seemed too busy and unprepared for the interview. When asked about development processes, make sure you show how flexible you are. They aren't looking for candidates who follow a strict SDLC; they want someone who can deal with less structure.
I applied online. I interviewed at Meta (Seattle, WA) in Apr 2013
Interview
A recruiter contacted me. After a few days of back and forth we set up a phone interview. In the phone interview we discussed a possible problem that involved trees. I struggled to implement the necessary algorithm.
Eventually, I got to ask a couple of questions about facebook.
Received a decline a couple weeks later.
