I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (San Francisco, CA) in Sep 2015
Interview
A 30 minute screening interview followed by a 45 minute coding interview done through the phone with online software. Not too difficult, along with some behavioral questions and general questions about why would you want to work at Facebook. Showing an interest in the product and having specific recommendations seems to be a priority.

I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
Completed 3 rounds of the process, which includes the initial recruiter screen, technical, full loop, and team matching.
Couldn't move past the full loop interview. The interview was very engaging, and I actually enjoyed working through the cases. No crazy questions.
