I applied through university. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Meta (New York, NY) in Dec 2018
Interview
I met the recruiter at the career fair. We setup a phone call interview the following week. Recruiter was responsive and helpful.
The phone call interview was with a software engineer and lasted about an hour. She not was helpful at all. We immediately started coding at the start of the phone call. She gave me a question rated hard on leetcode. It was a fair question, but the interviewer gave no help or input throughout my approach of the problem. She was silent and I had to explain to her what BFS and DFS was. It seemed like she did not know the answer to her own algorithm question.
My advice to interviewers: please do not ask coding questions if you do not know how to solve them yourself.
There were an excessive amount of rounds with a high difficulty of questions for a new grad role. Everyone I spoke too was very friendly though! Study hard and you may be okay.
Asked me two leetcode hard style questions and I knew it was over for me. Interviewer was nice and tried to guide me along the right path but the question just wasnt clicking with me.
2 tech, 1 behavioral
Tech were basic LC questions mostly from Meta tagged
Behavioral was also standard tell me about a time questions and deep dive into a project. A tech person was taking my behavioral, so went deep into why I used that tech and similar questions
