In FB phone interview I was asked 3 questions( 2 easy 1 medium ) in medium I solved for o( n^2 ) then solved for o( n ) but then interviewer asked can this be done better. I told approach but couldn't code as I ran out of time. Will I make it to onsite?
Are all the 3 questions from leetcode?
Only 1
Give it 48 hours, online poll won't help. I was asked one question, was from leetcode, solved it in 10 minutes, was trying to delay it but memorized it so much couldn't insert a typo or loop error. Then we chit chatted the guy was from Amazon he was bullshitting how bad the culture was. Got offer. If you don't get this time try leetcode harder can't fail
It’s ok - you will make it to on-site don’t worry
This whole leetcode interviews are getting ridiculous
Yes I did 2 and got onsite
Why you leaving uber and joining Facebook ... mostly people do reverse
Not anymore lol. That was early 2016.
I'll be surprised if Facebook will pay you more that what uber does
Just interviewed with FB. Everything was leetcode but I did not get this many questions. 1 on phone 2 in first interview 1 in second (this one had the behavioral discussion) 1 system design 1 in last interview Questions were medium or easy. Recruiter told me I am interviewing for L5 +/-1 Note: since I only did hards on leetcode, I did not know these by heart. It was obvious that I was figuring them out on the fly. Maybe they keep asking new questions and if they think you knew the previous one?
Interviewer should be crazy to ask that many questions in phone screen. What is the value one gets by asking these many? Test to see if how many the interviewee could memorize? No way you can solve 2 easy + 1 medium on the fly. Most will be 1 medium if they have not seen the problem before.
Heard same from my friend who joined FB a year ago - he had 3 questions in the phone screen. The thing is the first two are really easy, so you should solve them very fast. Then you have plenty of time for one more question. I guess if you reach it to a question 3 and do not completely screw it up, you are good.
^^ is correct. First two were very easy.
