I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Meta (Los Angeles, CA) in Dec 2015
Interview
This is the first round technique interview which lasts about 45 minutes. The interviewer just asked one coding question and I spent almost 30 minutes to figure out what problem is it and what he wanted to test me, so I don't have time to finish the coding. It's important to prepare every kind of coding question and don't think you are lucky enough to not meet the problems that you are not familiar with.

Question 1
implement read(int size) function with read4() function
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
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.
