I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (London, England) in Jan 2021
Interview
The interview process consisted of coding questions. I prepared for behaviour questions and general questions about Networking, Communication, OOP and other things that we study at our courses at the university but the interview was too oriented towards problem-solving.

1 takehome with blue jean
2 technical rounds
- easy lc in first round

that was sufficient for intern level interview
I applied through university. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
First step in person (University recruiting), two coding problems at the blackboard and 5 minutes for questions to the interviewer.
Second step remotely. A quarter behavioural and the rest three quarters of an hour for 2 coding problems.
I felt a strong connection to the interviewers.

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
