I applied through other source. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Meta in Oct 2021
Interview
Met with the recruiter first then the hiring manager. That went very well and the hiring manager confirmed they would put me through the interview loop which is to meet with 5 interviewers for 45 minutes each. A few weeks after the interview and not hearing anything back I emailed the recruiter, who replied back the following week asking my availability the next two days. After I replied back I never heard back, after all the time and effort I put into the interviews.

Question 1
Your general “tell me a time a project didn’t go well” etc.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Sep 2020
Interview
Got the interview invitation via internal referral. It took around a month after my friend did the referral.
Failed at the 2nd round due to lack of preparation. Both rounds were done online due to covid, and HR emailed me the links for confirmation of availability.
Both interviewers were nice and professional and the interview process was smooth. Will try again at some point in the future.

How to design an online e-commerce shop.
The difference between SQL and NoSQL, cons and pros for each if used in the design.
Describe how to design an Uber app (core components and how they are supposed to work together).
Fairly straight forward, recruiter helps with the prep before hand. And process is simpler than expected. The questions are standard PM questions - practice with cracking the PM interview & online resources
