Summary

I interviewed for a Software Engineer position at Meta in Bengaluru and was rejected after the phone screen, despite solving both technical questions asked.

How it went

I was recently approached by an HR from Meta for a Software Engineer role. During the phone screen round, the interviewer asked me two coding questions. I believe I solved both of them correctly with proper code and logic. Despite my efforts, I unfortunately received a rejection for the Software Engineer role.
