I interviewed at Meta (New York, NY)
Interview
2 interviews - one coding aptitude test, then two virtual interviews with members of team. Questions are leetcode medium, as well as product design and measurement questions. Tested on coding, statistical topics,.
There was 1 research and 1 coding interview. The research interview consisted of 2 parts: in the first part, they asked questions about my publications, while the second part was a brainstorming session about a research problem.
I had two interviews: one for research fit, where I presented my own research and the interviewer asked a lot of open-ended questions and the second was 45 minutes of ML coding (no pytorch), which was not very hard.
there is one coding round, just two lc easy questions, and 1 research round, asked about my research papers, gave hypothetical situation and asked for specific model architecture design details. Overall was pretty normal and not hard.
