I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Jan 2020
Interview
30 minutes phone screening, past work (portfolio) walk through and an app critique. Interviews were scheduled back to back. The hard part was waiting. It took a month for FB to finalize their decision after my final interview. This was ridiculous because they usually review candidates very quickly. After a month I was told that they placed me as a second choice and decided to give the offer to another candidate. If the candidate rejects the offer and they would give it to me. This is extremely unfair as it wasted my whole month as they kept placing me as a back-up.
The recruiter is very supportive. First round is a deck presentation. Second round is full loop: deck+ BQ+ whiteboard+ app critique. The Overall experience is good, it takes around a whole month
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.
