I applied online. I interviewed at Meta in Feb 2022
Interview
I went through the phone screening process (three easy questions) and scheduled the following interview which never materialized (canceled due to too many
recruitment processes opened at the company, probably cost-cutting measures). That is understandable, but I have wasted some time on the preparation.

Question 1
