Application
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Sept 2018
Interview
Very well organized interview process. The recruiter responds actively and the interviewers ask reasonable questions and behave friendly during interviews. It is a very enjoyable interview experience with FB. I suggest everyone who are looking for a SDE role try FB.

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
