I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Meta (Londres, Inglaterra) in May 2015
Interview
Stage one was a phone screen, clearly intended to give them a feel for whether I can think on my feet or not.
Then, a full day of interviews in the office - mixture of coding and culture fit interviews, where the culture fit interviews were done by underrepresented groups, and the coding interviews were mixed. Again, very clear that the goal was to get me a chance to sink or swim on my own merits.
Coding interviews were split between coding on laptop and coding on whiteboard, to give me a chance to come back if I can't code on a whiteboard.
That came back unsure, so I came in for one last interview session.
