I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Sydney) in Mar 2015
Interview
The process starts out with contacting a recruiter. I was fortunate to have a friend who had previous interned at Facebook.
From there, if they like the looks of your application, you will be given an online screening test on the hackerrank platform - 90 minutes.
Advice is to keep calm, don't stress out, make sure you read the question.
I solved this task with time to spare, and was able to move on with the process. I was given a phone interview, however did not perform well. The question was oriented heavily towards algorithm design and recursion, of which I could have solved, but unfortunately, given the stress, was unable to.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
It's a large company, but interviewing was definitely a more robotic process. The technical interviewer seemed checked out and didn't explain interview process well. At the end of the interview the interviewer only talked about himself, so I figured I wasn't in the running anymore.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Meta (Vancouver, BC) in Jan 2022
Interview
The interview was okay and I solved two questions but didn’t pass the first round, hard to tell and didn’t get the feedback why I was failed. Probably they don’t have headcount?
