I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Mar 2017
Interview
I had a chat with a recruiter and the phone interview was scheduled. Phone interview consists of two 45 minutes technical interviews - Python/SQL. Other reviews pretty much capture questions you should prepare.
Interviewers are nice and the overall experience was good. However, you will never hear back from the recruiter if you are not moving forward. I heard that there are recruiters doing that to save themselves few minutes but I expected Facebook would be different. If you don't hear after a few weeks and after few emails, stop wasting your time.

Question 1
Typical Algorithm/Data Structure Problem and SQL Joins/Functions
Begins with an application review and recruiter screening, followed by a technical phone interview that assesses SQL, data modeling, data warehousing, ETL processes, and coding skills in languages such as Python or Java. Successful candidates then proceed to onsite or virtual interviews, which include multiple rounds covering coding, system design, data architecture, problem solving, and behavioral questions.

I applied online. I interviewed at Meta (New York, NY)
Interview
Prepare technical concepts, and practice previously asked questions as much as you can find online. 4 rounds in the total process. It's easy as long as you just practice a LOT.
