Facebook Internship Interview Process
If you’ve been through the FB intern interview process can you share what it consisted of for you and what the timeline was? How were the technical problems asked (Leetcode wise)?
Just completed my summer internship at FB Got a call via campus fair in September 2 interviews. Got the offer in October end
In both of the rounds I was asked 1 LC medium question with follow ups. U need to be pretty fast in the 40 minutes interviews
What would you suggest for prepping up with the LC mediums?
Finishing up my internship now. Got a referral last October. First interview was over phone and went really poorly (interviewer was late, English wasn't her first language so lots of miscommunication, etc) so I immediately reached out to my campus recruiter afterwards and explained the situation. He nullified it immediately and gave me another first round (sometime late October or early November). Nailed that one and the in-person interview one week afterwards. Problems were Leetcode medium. DM and I'll be glad to answer any questions you have.
What would you suggest for practicing LC mediums?
I split a month of Leetcode premium with a friend and just went through all of the questions tagged Facebook (did them in order of relevance rather than order of simplicity). It's been a while since I last did them but I remember it being a pretty solid list.
I applied via referral last year. Got a variation of a leetcode medium question for my first interview which was over a shared coderpad. Passed that and got to final round, which had a behavioral, 2 leetcode mediums (one was definitely on the harder side of medium imo), and 1 leetcode hard. Pretty challenging for an internship interview imo, but maybe I just got unlucky :( Timeline was fast, but it may have helped that I had a referral. Got my feedback for phone screen a day after the interview and did the final round about 1 week and a half later. Got my rejection 2 days later but at least it was fast
How long were each of these interviews?? Did they expect all that in 45 mins?
Yeah, each interview was 45 minutes, and they started with intros, technical question with follow ups, then time for me to ask questions for the interviewer
