I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Boston, MA) in Sept 2017
Interview
I applied through online, One of the recruiter contacted me via mail. For an internship, 2 phone interviews. Recruiter sent a long mail how to prepare, what to expect and some other stuff. I was asked to solve a question in my phone interview. I solved it correctly. But i didn't communicate with the recruiter well. Because i am first time having this type of interview. I was tensed little bit.

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).
