I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (California City, CA) in Jul 2024
Interview
Recruiter reached out to me from my LinkedIn account. First call with recruiter for screening to make sure I am interested in being considered for the role at Meta and answered my questions about the role.
Next call scheduled for technical screening with data engineer at Meta. Basic SQL questions on joins, aggregates, group by. Coding questions were a little challenging. Questions on dictionary, lists, set etc. Interviewer was helpful and well prepared to answer any question I had. Did not clear the tech screening round.
Overall the interview process was good and both recruiters were helpful and patient to answer all my questions.
