I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Apr 2013
Interview
I sent my resume some time ago, then was contacted by a recruiter. We went over my experience and interests. Then I got a technical phone interview, followed by on-site interviews (with a manager + 2 coding interviews + 1 design interview). Got another phone coding interview afterwards. Then received an offer.
All the people I spoke with and/or met were very friendly and the overall experience was very positive. The campus is nothing short of amazing.

Question 1
Questions were not too difficult in nature (but not trivial either), but I did prepare for them and I have some direct relevant experience which helped.
Spoke with interviewer over video conferencing. He was very communicative . He answered my questions. Asked me BFS question. A question that involved BFS search. Given a matrix, I am suppose to find a path from top left to down right.

The technical round hit me with a classic array manipulation problem: moving zeroes to the end without disrupting the order of non-zero elements. As I tackled it, I felt a wave of familiarity wash over me; I had just practiced a similar challenge on PracHub. The rest of the interview followed a straightforward path, with some easy behavioral questions sprinkled in. Overall, it felt very easy, but I wasn’t quite the right fit for what they needed, so I didn’t receive an offer.
