I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta in May 2016
Interview
It was pretty straight forward. The first question was to test my coding skills and the second was to test my thought process for solving problems. I spent some time on the second problem mostly because I didn't understand what the problem was (probably too much time). It seemed that the interviewer had trouble clearly explaining to me what she wanted as a result. But once we got past that, the solution was straight forward.

Question 1
You are given an array with duplicate strings. Write a function to return the array without duplicates.
The technical round hit me with a classic array manipulation problem: moving zeroes to the end without disrupting the order of non-zero elements. As I tackled it, I felt a wave of familiarity wash over me; I had just practiced a similar challenge on PracHub. The rest of the interview followed a straightforward path, with some easy behavioral questions sprinkled in. Overall, it felt very easy, but I wasn’t quite the right fit for what they needed, so I didn’t receive an offer.

Move zeroes in an array to the end while keeping non-zero element order, in place
1 leetcode med, 1 leetcode hard. make sure you know your DSA and leetcode questions. I wasn't able to get an offer bc i didnt complete the second question. Got a reply 2 days later saying they would move on
