I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Oct 2017
Interview
I was referred by a friend. The recruiter contacted me roughly after a week, and set me up for the first round of interviews. The first round was Product Sense and Execution. I did not perform very well on the Product Sense interview, and was asked to do a follow up interview.
After passing the follow up interview, I did the final round, which was comprised of three 45 minutes interviews on Leadership, Product Sense, and Execution.
The whole interview process was pleasant. The recruiter was very responsive and helped me a lot prepare for the interview. Definitely prepare for the questions on Glassdoor!

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA)
Interview
Got approached from internal recruiter via Linkedin.
The first interview was a phone interview with the recruiter asking typical HR related questions to gauge my interest.
Followed with a half-day onsite (had the option to do via video call but I preferred not to) having 2 one hour interviews with product managers. The first interview was with 2 product managers (one of the them mostly listening in) and the second interview was with 1 product manager. Questions were typical whiteboarding, what-if product related scenarios which I enjoyed.
I think I did fairly well although I was ill at the day having slept very little so I underperformed and I felt there were areas I could have done better in. I left feeling 70% positive I would move to the next stage.
I waited for a couple of weeks to hear back but I never did so after following up with the recruiter a few times, he told me that they wouldn't proceed further and it took long for him to get back to me because it was 'close'! I had asked to receive further feedback and I never did. The recruiter never called me back (even if we tried to schedule time) and additionally when I asked 'well can you at least give me a few feedback points via email' I received nothing. Really negative experience which I didn't expect from a company like Facebook
