I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Meta (Seattle, WA) in Jan 2025
Interview
The first phone screen was great. It took 45 minutes. The interviewer was very nice person and mentioned that she wants to give as much as time for only coding. I got 2 common questions. I could solve both questions. I could explain the code by a full dry run for both questions. Personally, I preferred meta interview process compared to other companies.
