Current YOE-8
Current TC - peanuts

Phone: LC easy, LC medium
Onsite:

  1. Coding - LC medium(kth largest ), LC medium(String question not in LC)
  2. Coding - LC. medium(product of all except itself in array), LC medium(BST iterator) - couldnt solve it.
  3. System design - movie ticket booking
  4. Behaviroal - Why facebook? How did you resolve conflict with a different team? Critical feedback you received?
  5. System design - Leetcode contest.

I did fairly well except for the one coding round. Was hoping for a miracle.

Result after 10 days - reject.
feedback: The one coding question that I did not solve costed me the offer. I did system design good but not good enought to save me from the coding interview mistake.

Self feedback
I shouldn't complain that I failed because I just started preparation only before 3 months. Still failing many smaller company interviews. So, work hard and make sure not to repeat the same mistake in the subsequent interviews. At least I won't awe at those who get offers from faang now since I know what is the path.

Solved 141 LCs as of today most of them targetting FB tagged.

Good luck friends!
