Here are the most commonly searched roles for interview reports -
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Jan 2014
Interview
Overall the process is very fast and all the interviewers are very nice.
It take 3 weeks to finish all the interviews (include christmas and new year holidays).
I took 1 phone screen + 2 coding + 1 system design + 1 research interview( for PHD ).
All the coding questions are the common questions you could meet them easily when you read " crack the coding interview" or surf GeeksforGeeks.com, and there was no brainteaser.
The system design problem is kind of hard, because there are no right or wrong answers. I think I didn't perform that well in this round, because I am not very experienced in large system design.
The research interview mainly focus on my research project, and we also had a small coding part, I did well on that.
Honestly, I am kind of surprise that I did not get offer from Facebook, maybe there were some requirements that I did not match.
