I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
Lack of transparency about what job you are interviewing for. Why would I be interested in a role that I don't know what it is doing/about? The interview process was shorter than expected only 2 half-full day zoom rounds. The recruiters were helpful and answered me efficiently. Had a zoom glitch randomly, and it caused some visual issues with my presentation that played a part in the rest of my interview. The interviewers seemed disinterested. There was 0 gender diversity and barely any racial diversity in the interview panel. One of the interviewers was extremely condescending and rude, I almost asked to stop the interview. The interviewers looked overworked and tired and when asked about their experience, there was no excitement in their voices/and they all mentioned a lot of glaring issues where their voices were not heard. With interviews with this company more than any other company, people's major motivation to work here was for the money. I felt like a number in my interview. The recruiter didn't personalize the experience, was inexperienced and unprofessional, and ultimately the interview did not go as expected because of a technical issue, and the recruiter did nothing to help with that.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Have you worked with design systems before and when have you implemented one?
A lot of assumptions made on this one after tripping up multiple times on a PC way to say it: You didn't go to a design school. How did you end up in design?
The recruiter is very supportive. First round is a deck presentation. Second round is full loop: deck+ BQ+ whiteboard+ app critique. The Overall experience is good, it takes around a whole month
Straightforward like any big tech interview, but long and intense. Formats are pretty standardized so it just takes practice. Questions appear like it's from a bank, so if you're prepared you should be fine.

I was reached out by a recruiter. Started with the recruiter call, then portfolio presentation, then full loop (Portfolio presentation - app critique - design challenge - background). They had very strong emphasis on design craft and visual excellence. Recruiter who helped me prep was very nice and helpful.
