I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA)
Interview
Can’t talk too much about the process since I signed an NDA. I will say the technical recruiters did the best they could and were kind. I felt like the reality labs group I interviewed with was full of bs.. typical corporate behemoth design organization that has people interviewing that can only see candidates based on individual & preconceived biases. It’s all a game and it’s all crap. Play the best you can.
Straightforward like any big tech interview, but long and intense. Formats are pretty standardized so it just takes practice. Questions appear like it's from a bank, so if you're prepared you should be fine.

Interview
I was reached out by a recruiter. Started with the recruiter call, then portfolio presentation, then full loop (Portfolio presentation - app critique - design challenge - background). They had very strong emphasis on design craft and visual excellence. Recruiter who helped me prep was very nice and helpful.
Typical interview process consisting of multiple rounds—Pre-screen, Portfolio Presentation, Full-Loop (Presentation, App Crit, Whiteboard Challenge and Behavioral) - Felt I did really well, and I got great feedback during the rounds but ultimately received no offer.
