I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Syracuse, NY) in Feb 2017
Interview
It's from my career fair on campus. The HR asked about my android project then give me a question related to how to select a user's potential known friend from the users friend's friend list. Finally I asked three questions about my position. The coding question should be two or three usually. I think I failed because I didn't explain what I was thinking during the coding process

Question 1
A coding question about how to select a user's potential friend.
1 leetcode med, 1 leetcode hard. make sure you know your DSA and leetcode questions. I wasn't able to get an offer bc i didnt complete the second question. Got a reply 2 days later saying they would move on
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.
