I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Meta (Londres, Inglaterra) in Apr 2024
Interview
The interview was difficult, I did my best through all the rounds but company still rejected me. The feedback was also vague why go through 8 rounds to reject a candidate, ugh.

Question 1
Behavioral Question: Tell us about a time you encountered a challenging bug in your code. How did you approach debugging it, and what was the outcome?
Technical Question: Imagine a scenario where you need to design a system to handle a massive influx of user comments on a social media platform like Facebook. What factors would you consider when designing such a system, and what trade-offs might you need to make?

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.
