I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Madrid) in Jan 2015
Interview
One phone screen and one Skype interview. The whole process was very quick to set-up, and I received my offer just a couple of days after my last interview. This is the best interview experience that I've had with a company.

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.
