Had a phone interview for the summer internship program, as a Masters student. Was asked questions related to Data Structures and my background. The one issue was that I couldn't hear a fair portion of what the interviewer was saying, due to an accent, and a phone issue (on my side).
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Nov 2017
Interview
An hour of background questions. An hour of technical questions. I talked to a different person for each stage, and both people were very friendly and guided the interview well.

Question 1
What is the project I learned the most from recently?
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Oct 2017
Interview
Basically I reached out to a university recruiter who had visited our campus a couple of times. Very nice and gave me a full critique of my resume. Still liked my experience enough to refer me to technical recruiter. Technical recruiter called about a week later and we performed the white-boarding test. Questions were asked over the phone and I was expected to put my answers into an online IDE that he could see. First two questions were relatively easy but last one was very difficult and I didn't finish it well (time complexity was too high). I did not receive an offer.
