I applied online. I interviewed at Meta in Dec 2017
Interview
I applied through facebook's website. It took 3 weeks until they contacted me for the first time.
The first interview was with HR on phone, and the second was also on phone, but at this time I needed to answer two technical questions.
On the second interview I needed to answer the question by writing code on a platform they provided me by a web link.
The questions was fair, but I didn't pass because I used the wrong method name for the data structure.
Both interviewers were nice.

First step in person (University recruiting), two coding problems at the blackboard and 5 minutes for questions to the interviewer.
Second step remotely. A quarter behavioural and the rest three quarters of an hour for 2 coding problems.
I felt a strong connection to the interviewers.

Question 1
Motivations that brought me there.
Questions about SWEish experiences I had through my university career, both general (topic like particular challenges, collaboration) and more specific (experience with particular libraries).
Did the OA, the OA was 4 questions, passed, and then had an interview with a software engineer at Meta - still waiting to hear results back! I took it yesterday so fingers crossed
