I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Nov 2013
Interview
I emailed the recruiter and requested an interview. My first round interview was on the phone a week or so later. I heard back 3 days later.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Program "atof", which means convert a string float (e.g. "345.44E-10") to an actual float without using any existing Parse Float functions. This is not hard but gets messy.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
I was invited to take their OA about a week after applying, mostly consisted of leetcode easy and mediums. It was a pretty smooth process, with quick feedback. Good experience overall

Question 1
Data structures and algorithms, leetcode style medium and easy
They ask the normal standard DSA questions that you would expect for an internship like LeetCode mediums. I think there were two rounds of technical interviews before the offer stage.
DS&A questions, interview is just that with only a couple mins of non technical. Need to be quick and fluent in standard leetcode easy-med, and have decent enough grasp to come up with good ideas to approach leetcode hards.

Question 1
DS&A. Asked about how to merge 3 ordered array into ordered array. Then, how to generalise for k ordered arrays. Was okay, but need to be faster and have solution down as if you can do it in your sleep.
