Process
A recruiter reached out. We had a quick initial chat. I then scheduled a tech screen interview. The coding was done over CoderPad.io.
The interviewer seemed half-awake, kept rubbing his eyes, and wasn't very involved in the process. I barely finished the first part of the question, and we ran out of time. The interviewer cut me off and left for a meeting.
I still gave the whole process a positive rating because Meta's process is actually very impressive. The engineering manager who interviewed me wasn't very good, but that's not Meta's fault, in my opinion. I have 15 years of experience with stellar referrals, so getting denied because it takes me 40 minutes to manipulate a Linked List is still disappointing.
The modern interview process is pretty bad.
Questions
Clone a LinkedList, with a twist. Overall, a pretty easy question. Just know your data structures. Cram LeetCode for 2-3 months, and you'll be good.
