Here are the most commonly searched roles for interview reports -
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
Interview process is well-organized and conveyed professionally. Be ready to be surprised by questions. Do your homework. For software engineers, try to dig a bit into how they do stuff at Facebook. There will be very specific questions they gonna ask. The difficulty is to be calm down and devote yourself to think about the questions. Don't try to recall some problems that you've resolved, it may waste your time.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Meta in Nov 2016
Interview
I was contacted by a Facebook recruiter to set up an interview, after having dropped my resume for the company at a tech conference. Had one technical phone interview that went well and was booked for another interview. The second interview was okay, but I was given a third phone interview and rejected afterwards.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (New York, NY) in Nov 2016
Interview
I had two technical interviews with Facebook. Both interviewers asked me a few behavioral questions first such as why facebook and then move into coding challenges. I gave two solutions to one problem during the first round and passed it. For the second one, I only managed to solve one quite hard problem and failed it unsurprisingly.
