I applied through college or university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Meta in Oct 2021
Interview
Two rounds. First round was a 45 minute technical screen and the second was the final round with one behavioral and two 45 minute technical interviews.
Overall took a little under 2 months from my application to the final decision.

Question 1
There are n people with different timeslots they are free. The timeslots are expressed as a list of tuples [[1,3],[5,7],[11,12]].
Return a list of the timeslots where all n people are available.
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.
