I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
The first interview was quite simple. I had to do some coding over the phone using a web notepad app while the interviewer watched. The first was a simple programming question to write a method. The second was a slightly harder, problem solving question. It was to write a method which involved comparing two strings and counting how many letters from one string fits into another.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Jan 2013
Interview
Contacted by a recruiter to have a general discussion of my career goals. When she learned that I had other offers, the process was expedited. Went through a phone screen and then was brought onsite.
The interviewers were all very friendly, didn't feel like I was being judged, lots of positive energy from the interviewers.
The coding questions weren't particularly difficult, though the pirate design interview was more challenging/fun.
