No dynamic programming in FB interviews?
FB recruiter sent an interview preparation guide for ML engineer role which specifically says “There is no need to learn dynamic programming or ‘memorization’” Can someone from FB confirm this? Recruiter said follow the guide. Current TC: 250k Level: 64 at MSFT
Shit test,
Btw the word is memoization
I think that’s why ‘memorization’ is in quotes.
Memorization leads to memorizations for many I guess :p
BS. Got DP in a phone screen recently
Probably for SWE, they might not be asking that for ML because they’ll be testing candidates on other things except algos and system design.
I was interviewing for swe and even my recruiter said no DP which was such a BS Leetcode top freq FB tagged questions have many DP problems. Again, it's all luck. But why provide false information?
I don’t know anything about that. But if an fb recruiter handed you something that says “don’t study ____ for your interview”, then I would take it as a sign that you do not need to study whatever that thing is, call it a hunch lol
Nope, don't listen to this guy If he interviews you he will ask DP Recruiters don't know shit
@Oracle Probably at Oracle, not FB. Our receuiters are upfront with interviews
Can confirm, you can still get someone who didn’t get the memo though
Your recruiter is your best guide while interviewing at FB
That’s a sign that you need to solve all dp questions
If your recruiter said no DP q and still u get asked DP then reach back to your recruiter
I interviewed at many many well known places and the ONLY company who asked a DP problem was Bloomberg. Pretty weird that DP is so relevant in leetcode but not in interviews. IME trees, graphs and array problems are the most asked.
It's very common in Google and FB and many other companies Recently I was asked at lyft. So DP is not uncommon in top tier companies
Looks like you have great luck! DP asked in many places
Then that’s what they’re gonna ask you.
