I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Meta (Palo Alto, CA) in Sept 2016
Interview
My resume was submitted through a referral. So got a first call for basic screening and then she said the recruiter will call you. She seemed to be very new to industry and very immature. She asked me 3-4 questions. She said after that I am not suitable for the job. I have received at least 5-6 inmails after that from different recruiters from facebook that my profile looks perfect for the position and if I have time to speak to them.

First round recruiter screen, talked about scope of work and experience. Second round was panel style assessing technical and behavioral questions. Each interview was around 45 minutes each. Took about a little over a week for an offer.

Question 1
sourcing strategies
working with difficult hiring managers
It was fine. I applied about 10 times, and then a sourcer reached out to me. There were several rounds of interviews, so of which had better people than others. One recruiter was late to my interview, that was annoying
