I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Meta

Very strange behavioral interview questions where the interviewer was asking about times I had demonstrated leadership qualities but then disagreed with me about the definition of leadership, was strange to get after successful technical rounds. LC Mediums and Hards prepared me well for those portions.

Quite well defined interview process with an initial screening and then 4 rounds for the final loop involving 2 coding rounds, 1 sys design and 1 behavioral round. Upon clearing the loop, your packet gets sent to the hiring committee who then make the decision to hire you or not.
