I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
I was first screened by the recruiter. I then had two, 45 minute, interviews with two different product designers. The first call was to walk them through my portfolio. The second call was to critique an app on my phone. I received Yelp.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They really dug deep into my design thinking and reasons for decisions made in regard to my portfolio.
Straightforward like any big tech interview, but long and intense. Formats are pretty standardized so it just takes practice. Questions appear like it's from a bank, so if you're prepared you should be fine.

Interview
I was reached out by a recruiter. Started with the recruiter call, then portfolio presentation, then full loop (Portfolio presentation - app critique - design challenge - background). They had very strong emphasis on design craft and visual excellence. Recruiter who helped me prep was very nice and helpful.
Typical interview process consisting of multiple rounds—Pre-screen, Portfolio Presentation, Full-Loop (Presentation, App Crit, Whiteboard Challenge and Behavioral) - Felt I did really well, and I got great feedback during the rounds but ultimately received no offer.
