Process
A recruiter reached out to discuss potential opportunities at Facebook.
This initial phone screen with the recruiter went well, so a technical phone screen was scheduled.
This was for a position in Seattle, WA.
Questions
I was asked two questions during the technical phone screen.
The first one was a variation of the LCA, and the second one was a variation of a palindrome problem.
