I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Oct 2017
Interview
Recruiter contacted me on LinkedIn and was extremely professional and helpful. 4 round interview process, recruiter, coding, systems (programming), and on site. Dropped out in phase 3.
They describe phase 3 as a "systems interview", but it's extremely low level. Swap management, server flags, process management. A recommendation for a book called "The Linux Programming Interface."
