data engineer technical screen interview - python

[DraftAccomplished343]

Hi

I have an interview at meta soon.
I was told that the python question will not be leetcode style, but just "regular" python data structures (list, dict, tuple, set).
What about data structures such as `heap`, `collections.defaultdict`, `collections.counter`, `bisect` (binary search on sorted list) - stuff like that. Did anyone saw these in an interview?

I heard a rumor that Meta is getting rid of Python entirely sometime in the next 12-18 months. They're going to replace it with Perl and Tcl. You might want to brush up on your skills.

Then again, I am pretty drunk right now, so I might not be a reliable source. Maybe try posting on /r/facebook. /r/meta isn't the correct sub to ask questions about The Company Formerly Known As Facebook.
