US
7.5 YOE. Unemployed for 1+ year and playing video games and enjoying (addicted to) youtube shorts.
prep time: 1 month before phonescreen. 2 months (delayed due to reschedule) before onsites.
LC - 350. All grinder, blind, leetcode 75s were done multiple times.
Interviews:
Note: ALL CODINGS ARE MOST FREQ Facebook TAGGED! NO SURPRISES!
Phonescreen: 1 easy 1 medium.
Onsite:
coding1: 2 mediums - second problem I still had some bugs, but I ran out of time.
coding2: 2 mediums - finished all on time with test cases and runtime.
bq: I couldn't find the Medium post anymore... but it is mostly around working in unstructured environment, conflict, perserverance, growth (feedback received), and most proud project. STAR it ahead and practice
SD: design instagram alike app.
All interviewers were extremely professional, helpful when you ask for hints or clarification, and nice! Best interviews among Google, TikTok, Netflix so far.
Overall, I worried the most about one of my coding wasn't 100% correct. But still got the offer.
What helped me:
Coding: Meta most freq on LC. no brainer. I won't tell you what questions I got, it's gonna be useless for you.
SD: 3 books and many bytebytego videos. Hacking the system design interview by Stanley Chiang, Alex Xu both.
BQ: a lifed engineer youtube channel on story writing. Then just write it out and practice ahead of time.
No TC yet until TM is done. Will update the post once everything is finalized (this might take a while due to current slowness at Meta)
Good luck!
