Application
I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Jan 2017
Interview
2 rounds of phone interviews. Each round is a 45 minute for doing a coding test. Not too bad. Also talked about your experience and why Facebook. Questions are similar to the ones on Leetcode medium level. The hiring process is very fast.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
First step in person (University recruiting), two coding problems at the blackboard and 5 minutes for questions to the interviewer.
Second step remotely. A quarter behavioural and the rest three quarters of an hour for 2 coding problems.
I felt a strong connection to the interviewers.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Motivations that brought me there.
Questions about SWEish experiences I had through my university career, both general (topic like particular challenges, collaboration) and more specific (experience with particular libraries).
Did the OA, the OA was 4 questions, passed, and then had an interview with a software engineer at Meta - still waiting to hear results back! I took it yesterday so fingers crossed
