I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
It was a good experience . Awesome campus , very nice experience . Each interview was 45 minutes. Complete code in time is pressure. Practice in pen paper helps lot . Interviewers were nice , for coding need to cover edge case and test case.

Interview
I applied through career fair at my university. They hosted a pre-interview dinner so you can meet with your recruiter/on-campus interviewer. The next day I had my 45-min interview and it was a pleasant one. The question wasn't that hard and I didn't need any extra hint to solve it.
After that they sent me an onsite request (wait for 1 week), then I came to their HQ in MPK a week later. Had the interview by noon, then a good tour around campus. The onsite question was much easier, as I think if you're invited to onsite then be confident that you have a really good chance to get in.
After 2 business day I got the offer from FB. The compensation is really huge and very hard to decline.
As for tip, I would say get as much rest and be well prepared for the interview. They ask basic question but you need to have a clear mind to solve them comfortably, and please try as hard as you can to explain the thought process.

Phone interview, engineer was very nice but kind of awkward because he would't speak loud and was very difficult to communicate while programming and not being able to listen to his comments. Overall it was very interesting and helpful interview. They try to help you throughout the process and are very quick to answer emails and questions
