I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Jan 2015
Interview
The process moves slow. Sometimes it feels as though people are unprepared for calls that they've scheduled. There's seemingly a lot of disorganization among the recruiters I've dealt with. Sometimes it seems as though you must really be on top of them in the beginning.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Do you have previous project management experience?
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Feb 2016
Interview
I was contacted by a recruiter. Did a phone screen with the re recruiter, followed by a 45 minute Product Sense and 45 minute Product Execution Interview. My recruiter helped me prep for the interview beforehand.
The questions are very open ended and ambiguous. Ask a lot of clarifying questions and break down a big problem in a structured way. I had a lot of back and forth dialog with my interviewers.
I didn't make it but it wasn't for want of preparing or of any unfairness on the part of my interviewers.

Have you ever seen 'The Intern' with Robert De Niro? That's how this went.
Standard interview questions. Nothing challenging
I'm going to go a little off format here. After 15 minutes of questions to me, they asked if I had any questions. I did. And the answers to my questions led me to pass on the position.
