I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Meta (Charlottesville, VA) in Sep 2017
Interview
I got referred by a friend was then reached out to by a recruiter. We set up a campus interview. This interview consisted of two whiteboard coding questions. Everyone involved was incredibly friendly and responsive.

Question 1
Motivations that brought me there.
Questions about SWEish experiences I had through my university career, both general (topic like particular challenges, collaboration) and more specific (experience with particular libraries).
Did the OA, the OA was 4 questions, passed, and then had an interview with a software engineer at Meta - still waiting to hear results back! I took it yesterday so fingers crossed
