I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Nov 2015
Interview
on campus at Menlo Park, which is called Facebook University Day. 45min technical interview, code on white board. After that we had a wonderful tour of Facebook Campus and had a lunch. The ice-cream was super good! After that, Facebook Engineers made presentations and lectures about how it feels to work at Facebook.

Overall, the process took a little over two weeks, which felt a bit longer than I anticipated. After a quick screening, I went through two technical rounds focusing on coding and DSA concepts. One of the questions was a classic palindrome check; mid-way through, I realized it was something I had practiced on PracHub just days earlier. The final step was a casual behavioral interview. I was relieved to get an offer shortly after, which I happily accepted.
