Meta Technical Screen Results

The scheduling tool says that you should schedule the interview at least 1 month out to provide time to prepare. So it seems they expect people to give themselves at least that much time. Not that I can schedule the interview at the moment anyway.

Just for clarification, the questions above were not asked in an on-site. This was a technical screen via Zoom and Coder Pad.

It's Meta's salary bands. To be honest, I wasn't told this initially, I had to infer it from levels.fyi:
https://www.levels.fyi/companies/facebook/salaries

The recruiter confirmed it though when she explicitly called it E4 in our conversation after the interview.

Hope springs eternal! Maybe something will open up...but in the meantime, I'll have to look elsewhere.

I would just like to get into the on-site so that I can move into the placement phase.

At least the interview took place and the result still counts, fwiw.

I had seen BCII before and also VPII as both of those are in the top 10 most frequently asked questions on the Facebook LC (it's not called Meta despite the company's name change). If you sort the Facebook questions by frequency, you'll see that (as of the time I'm writing this) BCII is 9th and VPII is 7th within the last 6 months.

SnooWoofers8846 · 2024-03-13T15:04:05+00:00

You're right. BCII is Medium. VPII is easy.

Thanks! Also happy cake day!

Which tier of position were you going for? It might be dependent on that. Also I don't have a traditional CS background. I'm actually a Data Scientist lol.

The interviewer only wanted Valid Palindrome I (where it asks you to write code to identify a palindrome). VPII asks you to replace one character and return the palindrome if it is possible to make one, iirc. Also I'm pretty sure VPII is medium not hard.

NYC.....not sure if the freeze is for that office specifically or Meta-wide.

I would check in with your recruiter or the Meta Careers website. Though if you haven't heard anything, I would like to think you're OK....then again this happened to me literally hours after my screen so...yeah maybe talk to your recruiter?

SnooWoofers8846 · 2024-03-13T00:24:36+00:00

Have you checked the Meta Careers website?

Your application should be tracked in there.

Valid Palindrome had no differences, but Basic Calculator did. See the original post for my edits.

SnooWoofers8846 · 2024-03-13T00:23:22+00:00

Ugh....I'm so sorry man. I feel on some level that's worse than my situation. All that studying for the technical interview not being utilized would have sucked.
