I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Feb 2018
Interview
First a 30 minute phone interview with the recruiter and then a 45 minute back to back video interview with the designers. And then an on-site interview at Menlo Park.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
For the first 45 minute interview, it was about my pas work. They asked me to go through 2-3 of my projects. Questions about my design decisions.
The second 45 minutes was an App review. They let me choose which app I used the most and I chose Yelp. It was a free discussion between two designers not too much pressure.
Straightforward like any big tech interview, but long and intense. Formats are pretty standardized so it just takes practice. Questions appear like it's from a bank, so if you're prepared you should be fine.

Interview
I was reached out by a recruiter. Started with the recruiter call, then portfolio presentation, then full loop (Portfolio presentation - app critique - design challenge - background). They had very strong emphasis on design craft and visual excellence. Recruiter who helped me prep was very nice and helpful.
Typical interview process consisting of multiple rounds—Pre-screen, Portfolio Presentation, Full-Loop (Presentation, App Crit, Whiteboard Challenge and Behavioral) - Felt I did really well, and I got great feedback during the rounds but ultimately received no offer.
