The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Meta (Palo Alto, CA) in Aug 2010
Interview
A short 15 minute phone interview with a recruiter was followed by an interview with an engineer. I was asked about projects I had previously worked on and for examples of challenges I had to solve in them. Afterwards programming questions on algorithms with space and time constraints were asked and had to be solved in an online editor.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
The interview process was straightforward and well organized. It started with an initial recruiter or screening conversation about my background, research experience, technical skills, and interest in the role. The interviewer also asked behavioral questions about past projects, teamwork, and how I handled technical challenges. Overall, the process felt clear and professional.

Interview
I was invited to take their OA about a week after applying, mostly consisted of leetcode easy and mediums. It was a pretty smooth process, with quick feedback. Good experience overall

Question 1
Data structures and algorithms, leetcode style medium and easy
They ask the normal standard DSA questions that you would expect for an internship like LeetCode mediums. I think there were two rounds of technical interviews before the offer stage.
