I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
First round was a technical phone screen with 2 leetcode style questions.
Second/Final round had two technical phone screens with two questions each along with a system/product design and a behavorial round
The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Jan 2025
Interview
recruiter screen, technical screen (live coding), full loop which included another 2 live coding questions, a system design question, and a behavioral interview. Be aware that you can't run code in the live coding rounds-- you are expected to walk through "tests" yourself and just talk through what your solution is doing and debug it.
