Solicité el puesto a través de un captador. El proceso duró 2 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en Meta en sept 2025
Entrevista
The whole process is very streamlined and automated as much as possible. Good:
- Recruiter was very nice and generally helpful.
Bad:
- All interviews are fully remote. That's not a problem except the design interview. Its very difficult to discuss design remotely, especially given hard constraints.
- No ML questions, even for an ML engineer role. All technical interviews are only coding.
Final design interview was very PM-style, with a strong focus on business metrics. Every time I wanted to discuss ML-related technicality (i.e. network architecture, loss function, source of training data, ..) I was harshly interrupted by an interviewer.
- zero diversity. All interviewers are young Eastern Asians in their 20s.
Preguntas de entrevista [1]
Pregunta 1
Screen:
- one round of 90-minute coding; 4 related problems of increasing complexity
- Leetcode-style interview with a person. 2 questions - palindrome, trees
Full loop (each interview is ~45 mins):
- AI-assisted coding. You need to understand a codebase, fix bugs, implement new functionality. You can use Claude
- 2 medium Leetcode problems
- behavioral. Focus on past projects, conflict resolution etc.
- ML design.
Applied online. Received a recruiter screen within two weeks covering background and role fit. Followed by a technical phone screen with coding (LeetCode medium-hard, arrays/graphs). Then a virtual onsite with 4 rounds: 2 coding, 1 ML system design (recommendation/ranking system), and 1 behavioral. Interviewers were professional and gave time to ask questions. Results communicated within a week post-onsite.

First stage was a screen round with behavioral and 2 leetcodes, one medium one hard, 15-17 min each. If selected, loop is 4-6 interviews. 2 desgin, 2 coding, 1 behavioral.

idiotic questions that can't be answered in depth in 35 minutes design, like "your solution isn't going to work, how will you handle it?" yea no sht this is a baseline bro, wait 15 seconds and ill talk about the optimal one.

Standard Meta process.
1. Recruiter Call
2. Screening Call
3. Onsite Calls -4 rounds (2 coding, 1 ML design, 1 behavioral)
Interviews were all nice except for behavioral. (wouldn't hurt to speak anything apart from okay-okay)
