I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Meta in Oct 2009
Interview
I dropped my resume off at a career fair and applied online through my university's career center. Got invited to an interview. My interviewer was a a current software engineer at Facebook and told me a little bit about his work and team, and then dove right in to the technical questions. We were short on time so after one technical Q he asked if I had any questions.

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.

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.
