Summary

I had a phone screen interview for an E5 role at Meta in the US, where I was tested on two specific LeetCode problems: Lowest Common Ancestor of a Binary Tree III and Group Shifted Strings.

Full Experience

I recently interviewed with Meta for an E5 position, participating in a phone screen located in the US. During the interview, I was presented with two coding challenges. The first problem involved finding the Lowest Common Ancestor in a binary tree (LCA III), and the second task was to group strings that are "shifted" versions of each other. I focused on discussing my approaches and implementing efficient solutions for both.
