I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Mar 2012
Interview
A short initial phone chat with the recruiter (Who was excellent, even offering tips for the main interview) and then a technical phone interview with a developer.
The developer I spoke to was great, seemed like a nice guy and managed to pose some tough technical questions without seeming combative.
They got back to me within a couple of days to let me know they wouldn't be taking it further.

Question 1
Worked through a few coding questions using a shared document, getting progressively more complicated and then went through a sort of thought exercise regarding the limits of the proposed solution in terms of constraints like bandwidth, CPU speed, memory and how performance could be improved without re-writing the basic algorithm.
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.

It's honestly striaght from leetcode tagged
There are no surprises if you do tagged you would be good and do well.
System design is much harder. Would recommend using hello interview.
