I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
First technical screen. A person called you on the phone and gave u a problem that you have to solve within 45min on an online editor that is like notepad where they can monitor you on the other side.
I was well prepared but I wasn't expected that I would be interviewed by someone with such a strong accent. I usually don't have a problem with that since my college has a lot of internationals and I'm somewhat internationals but through phone it sounded so bad and I had to ask him to repeat almost everything I said to me. It was really bad and time-consuming asking the interviewer to keep repeating over and over what he said. I finished the problem just in-time to ask 2-3 questions from me to him. But the end of this made my experience worse when I was asking a question and he said "Sorry we run out of time I have to hang up" and abruptly hung up. I did not pass this interview but I feel like if it was a different interviewer I could have saved myself some time. I was not even sure if he could understand me most of the time because you know how they say you gotta say your thought out loud, I tried to do that but on his side he did not really respond to what I said which really made me feel like I was not talking to a human.

There were an excessive amount of rounds with a high difficulty of questions for a new grad role. Everyone I spoke too was very friendly though! Study hard and you may be okay.
Asked me two leetcode hard style questions and I knew it was over for me. Interviewer was nice and tried to guide me along the right path but the question just wasnt clicking with me.
