I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Mar 2015
Interview
I applied independently but didn't hear a response until my friend referred me. The interview process itself was very quick because I was waiting on another interview result from Google. There was no big design challenge to prepare for so I focused a lot on my past work presentation. The critique and problem solving was pretty quick and fun.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What would you fix if you got to lead the design team for X company?
The recruiter is very supportive. First round is a deck presentation. Second round is full loop: deck+ BQ+ whiteboard+ app critique. The Overall experience is good, it takes around a whole month
Straightforward like any big tech interview, but long and intense. Formats are pretty standardized so it just takes practice. Questions appear like it's from a bank, so if you're prepared you should be fine.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
I was reached out by a recruiter. Started with the recruiter call, then portfolio presentation, then full loop (Portfolio presentation - app critique - design challenge - background). They had very strong emphasis on design craft and visual excellence. Recruiter who helped me prep was very nice and helpful.
