I applied through college or university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Meta (Kraków) in Dec 2011
Interview
Facebook visited my university. We had a 45 min test and some of us were invited for 1:1 interview next day.
After that interview, recruiter contacted me like 2-3 weeks later and arranged phone interview.
Interviewers were very friendly. At the start they told me something about what they are working on, they gave me a small programming challenge. Interviewer wanted to know about my ideas for solving the problem and gave small hints if I got stuck.
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
Given a file with 3-letter words, print all 3x3 with each row, column and diagonal being one of the words from given file.
Given n+1 buckets with n of them with ball inside and move(a,b) function, that moves ball from bucket a to bucket b. Each ball has a different number from [1,n] on it. Move balls, so each bucket has a ball with matching number in it.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
The interview process was straightforward and well organized. It started with an initial recruiter or screening conversation about my background, research experience, technical skills, and interest in the role. The interviewer also asked behavioral questions about past projects, teamwork, and how I handled technical challenges. Overall, the process felt clear and professional.

Question 1
Data structures and algorithms, leetcode style medium and easy
They ask the normal standard DSA questions that you would expect for an internship like LeetCode mediums. I think there were two rounds of technical interviews before the offer stage.
