I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Oct 2014
Interview
Met the recruiters at the university carer fair and got a call a week after that. Had my interview on campus within that week. Got back my results 2 weeks later. The overall process took less than 3 weeks. The interviewers are friendly and will give hints in between to keep you getting closer to solution. This was a 1 on 1 interview and coding had to done on white paper. The questions are straight forward but need to take into consideration all corner cases when giving your algorithm. Also the code needs to be clean, so think carefully before starting to just code. Also practice writing code on white paper as when you are doing it you tend to scratch out code in between and that reflects bad.

Question 1
There were two questions based on string manipulation.
The technical round hit me with a classic array manipulation problem: moving zeroes to the end without disrupting the order of non-zero elements. As I tackled it, I felt a wave of familiarity wash over me; I had just practiced a similar challenge on PracHub. The rest of the interview followed a straightforward path, with some easy behavioral questions sprinkled in. Overall, it felt very easy, but I wasn’t quite the right fit for what they needed, so I didn’t receive an offer.

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
I applied online. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA)
Interview
It's honestly striaght from leetcode tagged
There are no surprises if you do tagged you would be good and do well.
System design is much harder. Would recommend using hello interview.
