I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Meta (Vancouver, BC) in Dec 2016
Interview
First a brief introduction of yourself. Then why you choose facebook. The following is an online coding question using mysql. Then question about like/dislike system in the facebook. How to choose emotions and any problems in the A/B test. This question is quite hard and I didn't get it until the interviewer gave a lot of hints.

I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
Completed 3 rounds of the process, which includes the initial recruiter screen, technical, full loop, and team matching.
Couldn't move past the full loop interview. The interview was very engaging, and I actually enjoyed working through the cases. No crazy questions.
It's all organized. Be prepared to showcase your depth of thinking. Two analytical rounds will make you think on your ability to solve probability and experimentation problems. Have a structure for everything
