I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Seattle, WA) in Aug 2023
Interview
Interview was extremely straight-forward! They gave me access to metacareers.com, and that had tons of resources for people preparing for an interview. They even let you schedule mock interviews with real employees before your actual interview. The interview itself went extremely smoothly, and I got great feedback after the fact on what went well!
