I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Aug 2018
Interview
I was recruited through Piazza, and Linkedin. Many other people at my university were also. Hiring Manager was very kind and accessible. Note the times are in PST, which caught me off-guard at first.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Several short Behavior questions. Then technical question (optimize distance between 2 points on a matrix given some number of blocking symbols)
no referral, directly applied online.
1 takehome with blue jean
2 technical rounds
- easy lc in first round
- easy-medium lc in second round
that was sufficient for intern level interview
I applied through university. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
First step in person (University recruiting), two coding problems at the blackboard and 5 minutes for questions to the interviewer.
Second step remotely. A quarter behavioural and the rest three quarters of an hour for 2 coding problems.
I felt a strong connection to the interviewers.

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
