Meta Intern interview questions

Such a stellar, stellar process. I was floored by how efficient and enjoyable every step was. I applied through an employee referral after meeting several employees at a conference. Because of NDA, I will remain pretty vague here--but several months later, they began looking for fall interns and a university recruiter contacted me saying she had received my CV through an earlier referral. A week later, we had a 40-minute phone interview (essentially a prescreening on what you're looking for, what experience you'd like to have, why Facebook, and most particularly what your research entails). Three days later, I found out I'd moved on to the next stage. Two weeks later, I had a 50-minute Skype interview that was based on behavioral questions, more about my research, and a few curveball questions that make you think much more deeply about research and methodology. I found out that day that I'd moved on to the last stage. Two weeks after that, Facebook flew me out for an on-site interview. Keeping this as vague as possible, I will say that they were so incredibly gracious and did so much to make sure I had a good experience (it would be hard not to!). Everyone I met was awesome, the campus is fantastic, and everything was incredibly efficient. Expect a presentation on a surprise prompt (you have three days to prepare) and one-on-one interviews. When I left, I realized that even if I didn't get this, just the experience of that single day made everything worth it. Good luck!

I sent my resume to a recruiter. They were coming to my university, so I had two interviews with two different engineers in-person. Before it, I had a pre-screen interview by phone with the recruiter and then I scheduled the interviews. Each interview was 45 minutes and it was basically: a description about the interviewer job, an overview in my resume, two average algorithm problems and then questions to the interviewer. In the problems, I gave all the possible solutions, starting by the easiest one. In one of them I didn't see a way, but the interview gave me a hint and it was fine. After three weeks I was called to another 45 minutes interview by Skype. In this interview I got stuck in an easy problem and three days later I got my result by email.
