I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Meta (Seattle, WA) in Jan 2020
Interview
Initially contacted in October over email and answered some screen questions. Didn't hear anything until December about interviewing for the intern position.
Had my first 45 min interview beginning of January. The interviewer was really nice. He asked me to talk about a project I was proud of and asked two standard coding questions. My second solution wasn't optimal but I explained how I would make it better. The last 5 minutes were reserved for me asking questions. The interviewer had good and passionate responses to what I asked which was really nice.
I heard back two days later that I had moved onto the final round interview. I did a 45 min video conference with one coding problem. A week later I received an offer!

2 technical rounds
- easy lc in first round
- easy-medium lc in second round
that was sufficient for intern level interview
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
First step in person (University recruiting), two coding problems at the blackboard and 5 minutes for questions to the interviewer.
Second step remotely. A quarter behavioural and the rest three quarters of an hour for 2 coding problems.
I felt a strong connection to the interviewers.

Question 1
Motivations that brought me there.
Questions about SWEish experiences I had through my university career, both general (topic like particular challenges, collaboration) and more specific (experience with particular libraries).
Did the OA, the OA was 4 questions, passed, and then had an interview with a software engineer at Meta - still waiting to hear results back! I took it yesterday so fingers crossed
