The interview process at Meta was a whirlwind experience. The recruiter took a leave, and I was ghosted for about 8 weeks after my initial round. However, I was pleasantly surprised to receive results within a week after the interview.

The technical rounds included a mix of coding, system design, and behavioral questions. I practiced the top 100 Meta-tagged LeetCode questions, which was very helpful.

I did encounter some challenges during a dry run in one of the coding rounds, but I managed to provide optimal solutions for most questions.

I picked Product Architecture over System Design, since that is closer to what I've done in past roles. I was a bit nervous about this format, as not many companies use it. However, someone recommended Prepfully, where I managed to find some EMs from Meta who were able to help me understand expectations. I recommend it too, by the way.
