I applied online. I interviewed at Meta in Feb 2026
Interview
O processo de entrevista geralmente envolve uma conversa inicial com o RH para alinhamento de expectativas, seguida por uma entrevista técnica focada em experiências anteriores, arquitetura de software, boas práticas de desenvolvimento e resolução de problemas. Dependendo da empresa, também pode haver um desafio técnico ou avaliação prática. Ao final, costuma ocorrer uma conversa com a liderança da área para discutir aspectos do cargo, da equipe e dos projetos.

Question 1
Como você estruturaria uma API backend para garantir escalabilidade, manutenibilidade e facilidade de testes?
Overall, the whole interview process took about three weeks, which felt longer than I expected given the urgency for the role. The technical round was challenging, featuring a problem on valid parentheses that required a single-pass stack approach. As I discussed edge cases, I remembered similar patterns I had been practicing on PracHub just days prior, and those hours definitely paid off. After a couple of behavioral interviews, I was thrilled to receive an offer, which I happily accepted.

Question 1
Given a string s containing parentheses and letters, remove the minimum number of parentheses so that the resulting string is valid (Minimum Remove to Make Valid Parentheses). Walk through a single-pass stack approach to mark unmatched opens, then a second pass to drop unmatched closes, with O(n) time and O(n) space. Discuss edge cases like all-letter strings, deeply nested groups, and whether multiple valid answers exist.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta (Sunnyvale, CA)
Interview
Pretty straightforward. I interviewed for the PE University Grad role. The first round was mainly a basic coding round and a PE basics round. Once I passed that, there was a loop of 3 interviews - System round (focussed on OS concepts), another coding round and a behavioral round.
