I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Seattle, WA) in Jul 2016
Interview
Was contacted by interviewer on LinkedIn. Since I live in Seattle, I was called onsite for 45 min preliminary round. HR received me and gave office tour. Then, I was introduced to interviewer. Interviewer was young and energetic . Interviewer asked me a question around binary tree and I was able to answer the question and write code quickly. Next day I was contacted by recruiter saying that they want to scheduled another interview before calling me onsite. This time I asked for phone interview. Second interviewer asked another question related to trees. I was able solve the problem and write code in 40 min. Later HR contacted me and said Interviewers are not happy with me. I'm not sure what they were expecting. HR said they couldn't tell me the reason for rejection due to legal reasons. It seems like they just want young engineers who can just code.

Question 1
Questions around BinaryTree and BinaryServiceTrees
The technical round hit me with a classic array manipulation problem: moving zeroes to the end without disrupting the order of non-zero elements. As I tackled it, I felt a wave of familiarity wash over me; I had just practiced a similar challenge on PracHub. The rest of the interview followed a straightforward path, with some easy behavioral questions sprinkled in. Overall, it felt very easy, but I wasn’t quite the right fit for what they needed, so I didn’t receive an offer.
