Master Meta (Facebook) interview questions with AI-generated practice. Prepare for coding rounds, system design, behavioral interviews, and product sense questions to ace your Meta interview.
Meta interviews are known for their fast-paced coding rounds and emphasis on shipping products quickly. The company values "Move Fast" and impact-driven engineers who can solve problems efficiently. Unlike some other tech giants, Meta coding interviews often require you to write fully working code in a shared editor with syntax highlighting but no autocomplete.
Typical Meta interview process:
Meta evaluates candidates based on these cultural values. Demonstrate them in your answers.
Ship quickly and iterate. Don't let perfect be the enemy of good. Speed matters in building products.
Work on problems that matter. Prioritize ruthlessly. Measure success by real-world impact, not activity.
Create products people love. Focus on quality and craft. Take pride in what you build.
Take risks and make big bets. Challenge the status quo. Don't be afraid to fail.
Share information freely. Give and receive feedback openly. Transparency builds trust.
Create long-term value for society. Think about broader implications. Build responsibly.
2 problems in 45 minutes. Must write working code with correct syntax.
Design large-scale systems. Required for E5+ (senior) roles.
Called "Jedi" internally. Assesses culture fit and soft skills.
For Product Manager roles. Focus on product thinking and metrics.
45 minutes, 2 problems. Aim for 20 minutes on the first problem, 20 on the second, 5 minutes buffer. If stuck for more than 5 minutes, ask for a hint.
Unlike Google, Meta expects compilable code. No pseudocode. Practice writing clean, working code without IDE help. Know your language's syntax perfectly.
Think out loud. Explain your approach before coding. Discuss trade-offs. Ask clarifying questions. The interviewer wants to see your thought process.
Focus on coding skills. 2 coding rounds, 1-2 behavioral.
System design becomes critical. Leadership expectations increase.
Heavy focus on product sense and execution.
SQL, statistics, and product analytics focus.
Focus on arrays, strings, hash maps. Solve 30-40 LeetCode problems tagged "Facebook". Practice writing clean code without IDE autocomplete.
Master tree traversals, graph algorithms (BFS/DFS), and common DP patterns. Solve 30-40 more problems. Start timing yourself (20 min per problem).
Study distributed systems. Practice designing Facebook products (News Feed, Messenger, Instagram). Focus on scalability and trade-offs.
Prepare stories demonstrating Meta values. Do full mock interviews under time pressure. Practice 2 problems in 45 minutes repeatedly.
