I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (San Francisco, CA) in Jul 2020
Interview
Had a quick phone to go over my background.
Followed with 1 tech screen. However, during my video chat tech screen, my interviewer was more interested in his work than the actual interview.
So he never answered any questions, ignored my 90% of the time, and then just left. Overall the tech-screen was the worst interview process I have ever gone through and couldn't get any advice on how to proceed.
My recruiter/coordinator was fantastic, sadly not much help when it came to addressing the above concern. Kind of sucks to get rejected when it wasn't entirely your fault.

The process is straightforward and designed to help us get to know each other. It moves through a few stages at a comfortable pace, involves conversations with several team members, and focuses on making sure it's a good mutual fit.

Interview
Had an initial recuriter call and then scheduled a coding round with 2 leetcode questions. Practicing Meta-tagged leetcode questions would help prepare for this round. Interviewers expect clear communication and code.
