Difficult, two hard system design interivews, the leetcode ones were straight LC mediums and pretty easy. Overall doable for any senior engineer i would say - thought system design will require reading theoretical books
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Nov 2025

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta (New York, NY) in Jul 2025
Interview
The interview wasn’t easy, but it also wasn’t impossible. I didn’t pass the technical round, but the question I was asked was from the Meta top 200 questions on LeetCode, so it was definitely fair game. If you prepare well with those types of problems, you should have a solid chance. Overall, the process seemed reasonable and aligned with the preparation materials that are commonly recommended.
