      Software Engineer New Grad Interview

      2 Mar 2022
      Anonymous employee
      Menlo Park, CA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Dec 2021

      Interview

      -Phone screen -3 days later moved me to virtual onsite -virtual onsite was 3 back to back interviews -They told me yes 2 weeks after -Very smooth process. The recruiters really are quite excellent.

      Interview questions [3]

      Question 1

      Coding Round 1: You have 45 minutes to solve two coding problems, but do not expect to have all 45 min to work on the problems. The interviewer will introduce themselves and will leave time at the end for questions.
      Answer question

      Question 2

      Behavioral Interview: 45 minutes to talk about different qualities and different situations. Advice(How to prepare): Prepare 3 stories in advance that can be used to handle all kinds of questions they throw at you. Remember to always focus on what you learned. They ask about a conflict you had with a coworker. No one cares about the specific details. What any employer will care about though is what you learned/took away from the experience? How did you grow?
      Answer question

      Question 3

      Coding Round 2. Same deal as Coding Round 1. Work fast, and explain your thinking. Do not be stupid and go into these coding rounds without practicing on leetcode. When you are under pressure in an interview, it is challenging to think through an efficient solution in a timely manner. The outcome of these two coding interviews will be almost entirely based on how much you have prepared, and a little bit of luck
