I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Meta (Seattle, WA) in Jun 2025
Interview
Overall it was positive. Everyone was very respectful and considerate. The coding questions were difficult but doable if you've practiced before. The recruiter and schedulers were understanding when I needed to reschedule as well.
Applied online. Received a recruiter screen within two weeks covering background and role fit. Followed by a technical phone screen with coding (LeetCode medium-hard, arrays/graphs). Then a virtual onsite with 4 rounds: 2 coding, 1 ML system design (recommendation/ranking system), and 1 behavioral. Interviewers were professional and gave time to ask questions. Results communicated within a week post-onsite.
First stage was a screen round with behavioral and 2 leetcodes, one medium one hard, 15-17 min each. If selected, loop is 4-6 interviews. 2 desgin, 2 coding, 1 behavioral.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
idiotic questions that can't be answered in depth in 35 minutes design, like "your solution isn't going to work, how will you handle it?" yea no sht this is a baseline bro, wait 15 seconds and ill talk about the optimal one.

Interviews were all nice except for behavioral. (wouldn't hurt to speak anything apart from okay-okay)
