I applied online. I interviewed at Meta in Aug 2018
Interview
The person conducted the phone interview had a heavy South Asian accent and was impossible to understand. She was following the script the entire process and gave the impression that she was impatient and just want to ask the question to get it over with. Every question apparently had a very specific "right answer" and any slight change in the word would mean I'm wrong. Absolutely no judgement of her own. Just comparing my answer to the given "offical anwer". Very frustrating. Felt like I was interviewed by a badly written chat bot.

What's the problem instagram faces and what is your solution?
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
Interviewer for a role based in APAC. The recruiter seems to be very eager. I was scheduled to speak with hiring manager on the 2nd day. Then 4 interviews via video call. The whole interview process took 2 weeks. I spent time to research and prepare. Then HR ghosted on me after I declined to disclose salary information(the role is in Asia). A month later, got a The generic letter of no.
Unfortunately both recruiters went MIA after the initial phone interviews. Had phone interviews for two different roles. Recruiters, as is customary, said they would provide me with an update. Followed up twice with the both of them, and never heard back. Quite a bad experience, to say the least. And here's the catch, they reached out to me, I never applied for either of the roles they interviewed me about.
