Colloquio
Interview was for software engineer. I got the interview call through career fair at campus. It was a telephonic interview for 45 min. The interviewer was very polite and helpful. In the end I messed up things. It started off with the interviewer introducing himself, and asked to introduce my self. Then some behavioral questions, like why Facebook, which team, either Front-end or Back-end are you interested in, and a couple of questions on my projects and resume. The interviewed happened on a Thursday. At the end of the interview, the interviewer told "Sorry! Time's-up". Then itself I understood, I would not clear it. Next monday, I got a mail from the recruiter, that they can't move forward.

You have a string that consists of all types of characters, alphanumeric, special, uppercase and lowercase. The string should still tell me that it is a palindrome or not. For example: 12@#.Race@#car. The example is a palindrome. (Omit the special characters, and do not consider the string to be case sensitive). I wrote the code in O(n), but I was using an extra string to store only the letters. The interviewer asked me to do it in place (use only that string and check for palindrome)
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.

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.
