      Data Engineer Interview

      14 Jul 2017
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Meta in Jun 2017

      Interview

      Had a single phone interview, The interview was a poor experience. First, The interviewer never cared about what i did in my job.This should be the most important question for experienced people,but dint even see my resume. For the questions ,they were along the same lines as the other interviews. The interviewer basically had 5 questions already in the editor before i even started.I tried to solve them as quickly as possibly,but was able to complete only 3 because of the detailed explanation i gave(probably a mistake on my part).After i solved the 3rd question(dint even ask algo for 4 and 5 coding)he pasted the 5 sql questions.Managed to complete the 5 sql though. The interviewer was quiet during the whole interviewLater got a rejection. Think the expectation is to cram the solutions before hand and just write solutions even before reading the solution / your typing speed should be high. Being an interviewer myself, feel the way some interviews are conducted are not good. Time shouldnt be such a factor.Assumption that if you code a problem in 15 minutes and other person takes 20 minutes, the person taking 15 minutes would code/work more in a day is as good an assumption that a 200m distance runner would beat a marathon runner in a marathon race. Hope my fellow interviewers get it sometime in future atleast My second bad interview experience with Facebook and to top it all heard I cant interview for 1 year.Love the company but think i have to re-evaluate if i want to ever experience their interview process again. The recruiters were nice during the short process and would like to thank them.
