I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Palo Alto, CA) in Oct 2015
Interview
Phone interview organization is not very good. The interviewer of one phone interview was absent, wasting one afternoon. Onsite organization is really good.
All questions are ordinary, seems they more care about the communication b/w you and the interviewer, and that is probably the reason I got rejected.
Feedback was really fast, 3 days after interview.

Question 1
Basic algorithm questions, no hard or surprising one. For example, merge two ordered list.
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.
