Process

I have interviewed with Facebook three times.

Every time, they ask the same stupid question: Given an array of integers, find three integers that sum to zero.

As many as three people from HR get involved to schedule a simple phone screen. And even after solving the problem in O(n^2) time, I did not get an on-site with them.

Questions

Given an array of integers, find 3 integers that sum to zero.

Given a sorted circularly linked list, how would you insert an element in it?
