I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Meta (San Francisco, CA) in May 2014
Interview
Phone interview: Was called one day after submitting my resume. Very nice, recruiter but new very little about the actual position which made it difficult for me to show my value. She appeared to be very excited about my interest through multiple emails but did not hear back.
I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (New York, NY) in Jan 2011
Interview
Hands down the best most thorough interview process around. While the process varies from person to person and role to role, I experienced multiple rounds of phone screens, six onsite interviews, and a "hack" assignment. The process moved really quickly and they were keen on letting me know next to immediately that they were going to make me an offer.

Question 1
The unexpected part of the interview process was the take home "hack" that I then had to submit back to the team for review.
