I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Meta in Nov 2017
Interview
After applying online I was given a phone interview with an engineer where I would answer a few questions using a shared text editor and talk about my process and any problems I had. They seemed as interested in how I approached the problem as a correct answer.

First step in person (University recruiting), two coding problems at the blackboard and 5 minutes for questions to the interviewer.
Second step remotely. A quarter behavioural and the rest three quarters of an hour for 2 coding problems.
I felt a strong connection to the interviewers.

Question 1
Motivations that brought me there.
Questions about SWEish experiences I had through my university career, both general (topic like particular challenges, collaboration) and more specific (experience with particular libraries).
Did the OA, the OA was 4 questions, passed, and then had an interview with a software engineer at Meta - still waiting to hear results back! I took it yesterday so fingers crossed
