I had my recruiter ask me to fill a form of when I can have the first phone screen tech interview. Planned one in two weeks. I was asked two questions in 45 mins. After passing the first round, I had a second interview which I scheduled in 3 weeks. I didn't go past that stage.
The interviewers were kind and it was a good experience overall. Questions were the most frequent Facebook medium-hard questions from leetcode.
