Meta Placement Papers 2025 - Actual Questions & Solutions

DSA Coding Problems (2025)

Question 1: Longest Substring Without Repeating Characters

Q1: Given a string s, find the length of the longest substring without repeating characters.

Example:

Input: s = "abcabcbb"
Output: 3

Solution (Python):

def lengthOfLongestSubstring(s):
    char_map = {}
    left = 0
    max_len = 0

    for right in range(len(s)):
        if s[right] in char_map and char_map[s[right]] >= left:
            left = char_map[s[right]] + 1
        char_map[s[right]] = right
        max_len = max(max_len, right - left + 1)

    return max_len

Time Complexity: O(n)
Space Complexity: O(min(n, m))

Meta 2025 Interview Experiences

Based on recent candidate experiences from 2025 Meta interviews:

2025 Interview Process:

1. Online Assessment (60-90 minutes): 3-4 coding problems
2. Technical Phone Screen (45-60 minutes): Coding problems, algorithm discussions
3. Onsite Interviews (4-5 rounds, 45 minutes each):
   • Coding rounds (2-3): Algorithms, data structures, problem-solving
   • System Design round: Critical for senior roles (E4+) - social media scale
   • Behavioral round: “Move Fast and Break Things” culture fit, data-driven decisions

2025 Interview Trends:

• Increased emphasis on data-driven decision making and metrics
• More focus on system design for social media scale
• Enhanced behavioral questions about fast iteration and learning from failures
• Questions about using data to persuade leadership

Common 2025 Interview Topics:

• Coding: Arrays, strings, trees, graphs, valid parentheses, merge k sorted lists, longest substring
• System Design: Facebook News Feed, social media systems, real-time systems, scalability
• Behavioral: Data-driven decision making, fast iteration, breaking things to learn
• Social Media Scale: Problems related to handling millions of users, real-time updates

2025 Interview Questions Examples:

• “Design Facebook News Feed” (System Design)
• “Clone Graph” (Coding)
• “Longest Substring Without Repeating Characters” (Coding)
• “Tell me about a time you used data to persuade leadership to change a decision” (Behavioral)

Success Tips:

• Strong coding performance is essential - solve problems optimally
• Practice system design for social media scale - critical for E4+ roles
• Prepare examples demonstrating data-driven decision making with metrics
• Show “Move Fast” mindset - rapid iteration and learning from failures
• Practice social media scale problems - millions of users, real-time systems
• Be ready to discuss breaking things to learn and improve
• Prepare examples showing how you used data to influence decisions

Difficulty Rating: 3.2/5
