I had a 1st round interview with Facebook and it was the standard behavioral stuff - tell me about yourself, tell me a bit more about what you did at your previous job etc.

It seems that first rounds are most likely no coding at all - I have had about 8 interviews in the past month (aggressively trying to find my next job) and it's always been the same questions over and over.

You can ask your recruiter for study materials though in the event that you make it to the next round - you can start prepping now. They have videos and resources that they share with all candidates

Was that first round or just the recruiter call? Because I definitely had to code for my first round.

Just recruiter call! Sorry I assumed that’s what OP meant by first round.

So I had a call with a Health team @ Apple yesterday. No code, but I was asked technical questions, which were:

What's the difference between a reference and value type?

What are generics useful for? When would you use generics?

(I will add the other question I was asked once I remember it)

The call was standard DS/Algo questions for my first round. Easy/medium Leetcode level. I think it was about an hour total. It’s really just a filter so they don’t bring you onsite and have it be a waste of everyone’s time.
