I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Meta in Nov 2020
Interview
A friend referred me and a recruiter reached out to schedule the first interview. They moved forward with the second interview which was tougher than the first one (they said it wasn't intentional). I heard back from my recruiter about 2 weeks after this interview and got rejected. The experience was nice. I strongly recommend to get mock interviews from your friends or anyone else with experience to practice,

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
