J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. J'ai passé un entretien chez Meta (New York, NY) en avr. 2013
Entretien
I came onsite for what was described as an hour-long introductory and technical interview. I was greeted by the recruiter and shown around the office (FB NYC), then we chatted for 10-15 minutes. Then an engineer came in and we started the technical part of the interview, which took 45+ minutes (we ran over).
First he asked me about Hadoop, since I mentioned that I used it at my current job. I used hadoop for machine learning tasks, so we discussed the details of the system.
The rest of the interview was coding on a whiteboard. The questions got progressively more difficult.
The first was: Given two string representations of binary numbers (e.g. "1001", "10") write a function that adds them and returns the result as a string as well (e.g. "1011").
The next had several parts:
(a) first, write a function to calculate the hamming distance between two binary numbers
(b) write a function that takes a list of binary numbers and returns the sum of the hamming distances for each pair
(c) the answer I gave for b was O(n^2), I was then tasked with finding a more efficient solution. I struggled mightily, and was eventually helped to the solution by many hints from the interviewer.
After that, I had a chance to ask questions of the interviewer, and then we were done. I don't know if I've made it to the next round or not.

Question 1
(a) first, write a function to calculate the hamming distance between two binary numbers
(b) write a function that takes a list of binary numbers and returns the sum of the hamming distances for each pair
(c) find a solution for (b) that works in O(n) time.
Overall, the process took a little over two weeks, which felt a bit longer than I anticipated. After a quick screening, I went through two technical rounds focusing on coding and DSA concepts. One of the questions was a classic palindrome check; mid-way through, I realized it was something I had practiced on PracHub just days earlier. The final step was a casual behavioral interview. I was relieved to get an offer shortly after, which I happily accepted.

It's honestly striaght from leetcode tagged
There are no surprises if you do tagged you would be good and do well.
System design is much harder. Would recommend using hello interview.
