I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in May 2016
Interview
I submitted my resume through school job fair. The process took 4 weeks and got the phone interview. The first round phone interview is around 45 minutes. Went through my background and previous internship and project experience. Asked about most interesting project and previous team work experience. Got three algorithm questions.

Question 1
1. combine two sorted lists, ask time complexity
2. combine kth sorted lists, run example and explain
3. given iterator of list and how to combine them
Overall, the process took a little over two weeks, which felt a bit longer than I anticipated. After a quick screening, I went through two technical rounds focusing on coding and DSA concepts. One of the questions was a classic palindrome check; mid-way through, I realized it was something I had practiced on PracHub just days earlier. The final step was a casual behavioral interview. I was relieved to get an offer shortly after, which I happily accepted.
