I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Oct 2020
Interview
Took about a month. The recruiter was great, gave a lot of information on the process and was very straight forward. Had technical challenge that was about 70min, then 2 technical interviews. The second technical interview was pretty tough.

Interview
I attended a company info session hosted by a university recruiter. There was a resume drop the next day and that is how I got the interview opportunity. I was contacted by the university recruiter to select my availability and the interview was conducted via video call and a shared editor.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked a data structure question involving hashmaps. It was an application-based conceptual question and the interviewer was more interested in the thought process behind how to solve it instead of coding skills.
The interviewer was friendly and introduced herself before explaining the problem. It was a standard 5min intro + 40min coding + 5min qna structure. The coding question was around the level of a leetcode medium.
