Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 2 semanas. Fui entrevistado pela Meta (New York, NY) em dez. de 2015
Entrevista
Applied online, contacted by recruiter in ~2 weeks. Had a phone interview. The interviewer did not say much, and when I had asked if I was going in the right direction, he said things along the lines of, whatever you think is right, which was not helpful at all. The question itself was moderately difficult, and would be really hard to solve without a bit of help, in my opinion, and the interviewer didn't seem to care much. He was pretty quiet the entire time, which made me nervous, but I suppose that is my own fault too. Overall, the phone round was pretty tough, and I would say to know your way around arrays and sorting very well.
Overall, the process took a little over two weeks, which felt a bit longer than I anticipated. After a quick screening, I went through two technical rounds focusing on coding and DSA concepts. One of the questions was a classic palindrome check; mid-way through, I realized it was something I had practiced on PracHub just days earlier. The final step was a casual behavioral interview. I was relieved to get an offer shortly after, which I happily accepted.

Design Twitter and consider if it was suddenly an extremely low latency env
Grateful doesn't even begin to describe how I feel about landing this role. The interview loop was smooth and friendly. They kicked things off with a technical round where I faced a DSA question about verifying an alien dictionary. Lucky for me, the time I'd spent on PracHub paid off, as it had the same type of problem just days before. After that, I had a system design discussion and a behavioral interview. Everything felt very collaborative, and by the end, I received an offer that I was thrilled to accept.

Pergunta 1
Given a list of words written in an alien language and the order of letters in that language's alphabet, determine whether the words are sorted lexicographically (Verifying an Alien Dictionary). Walk through the comparison approach using a character-to-index map, the O(C) time complexity where C is total characters, and how you'd extend it to handle words with mixed-case letters or words containing characters outside the given alphabet.
