You are given 2 streams of data, representing very sparse vectors
you are guaranteed that the 2 incoming streams are of same size
give a data structure which is optimized for producing the dot product of those sparse vectors
analyze your runtime/space complexity,
b) what if you are now told that v1, is much more sparse than v2
give another (or the same) data structure optimized for the dot product of any such 2 vectors (where 1 is more sparse than the other)

Other Software Engineer Intern Interview Reviews for Meta
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
The interview process was straightforward and well organized. It started with an initial recruiter or screening conversation about my background, research experience, technical skills, and interest in the role. The interviewer also asked behavioral questions about past projects, teamwork, and how I handled technical challenges. Overall, the process felt clear and professional.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I was asked two LeetCode-style coding questions during the technical interview.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
I was invited to take their OA about a week after applying, mostly consisted of leetcode easy and mediums. It was a pretty smooth process, with quick feedback. Good experience overall
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Data structures and algorithms, leetcode style medium and easy
They ask the normal standard DSA questions that you would expect for an internship like LeetCode mediums. I think there were two rounds of technical interviews before the offer stage.
