I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
I was invited for an on-campus college interview. There was 5 minutes in the beginning talking about previous experience. Then a coding part; I think they had three questions prepared, but they could get the same sense of your skills whether you only answered one or all three. It's Facebook -they know what they want and there's no frills to the interview.

Question 1
Given an integer, return all sequences of numbers that sum to it. (Example: 3 -> (1, 2), (2, 1), (1, 1, 1))
Overall, the process took a little over two weeks, which felt a bit longer than I anticipated. After a quick screening, I went through two technical rounds focusing on coding and DSA concepts. One of the questions was a classic palindrome check; mid-way through, I realized it was something I had practiced on PracHub just days earlier. The final step was a casual behavioral interview. I was relieved to get an offer shortly after, which I happily accepted.

It's honestly striaght from leetcode tagged
There are no surprises if you do tagged you would be good and do well.
System design is much harder. Would recommend using hello interview.
