Me postulé a través de una recomendación de un empleado. El proceso tomó más de 1 semana. Acudí a una entrevista en Meta (Menlo Park, CA) en oct 2016
Entrevista
Referred by one friend, and response in 3 days. First round is phone interview with online code judge process, second round is on site for 4 rounds interview. The HR are so nice and the phone there are mostly busy with their work, they do not seem to have lots of time for the interview. The quicker you finish, the more question you answer, would be the way that they prefer. One of the interviewer asked me a lot things related with my previous project, but I do not think it is related.

Pregunta 1
Implement an circular queue with basic queue attribute for the phone interview.
Onsite:
1. isolated island number in matrix
2. Merge sort (just pure merge sort), but absolutely no bug
3. selling stock III
4. Haffman code implement
Overall, the process took a little over two weeks, which felt a bit longer than I anticipated. After a quick screening, I went through two technical rounds focusing on coding and DSA concepts. One of the questions was a classic palindrome check; mid-way through, I realized it was something I had practiced on PracHub just days earlier. The final step was a casual behavioral interview. I was relieved to get an offer shortly after, which I happily accepted.

Design Twitter and consider if it was suddenly an extremely low latency env
Grateful doesn't even begin to describe how I feel about landing this role. The interview loop was smooth and friendly. They kicked things off with a technical round where I faced a DSA question about verifying an alien dictionary. Lucky for me, the time I'd spent on PracHub paid off, as it had the same type of problem just days before. After that, I had a system design discussion and a behavioral interview. Everything felt very collaborative, and by the end, I received an offer that I was thrilled to accept.

Pregunta 1
Given a list of words written in an alien language and the order of letters in that language's alphabet, determine whether the words are sorted lexicographically (Verifying an Alien Dictionary). Walk through the comparison approach using a character-to-index map, the O(C) time complexity where C is total characters, and how you'd extend it to handle words with mixed-case letters or words containing characters outside the given alphabet.
