The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Jan 2012
Interview
The interviewers were very nice - couldn't understand what one interviewer was saying, but he wrote the tasks and it was ok in the end. Had planned 3 technical interviews in total, failed the last one. The recruiters were extremely nice and prompt. Will definitely apply next year, all the interviewers seemed to be energetic and enthusiastic about their work - sound like the team I want to be part of and definitely worth the struggle.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
The interview process was straightforward and well organized. It started with an initial recruiter or screening conversation about my background, research experience, technical skills, and interest in the role. The interviewer also asked behavioral questions about past projects, teamwork, and how I handled technical challenges. Overall, the process felt clear and professional.

Question 1
Data structures and algorithms, leetcode style medium and easy
They ask the normal standard DSA questions that you would expect for an internship like LeetCode mediums. I think there were two rounds of technical interviews before the offer stage.
