I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Oct 2017
Interview
Phone screen with a Front End Engineer. Few minutes for introductions, and then a technical problem, which even in the disguise of a front-end related problem, revolves around data structures and algorithms, which is fair play. Prepare accordingly.
I got a question. Delayed a minute considering an option for a solution, then implemented another one. Solved it successfully, discussed complexities. I got another problem since we had time. Solved this one on the first attempt. Interviewer said nice things about the solution.
And then I was rejected. I guess you must be superhuman to pass interviews such as this - one thing which is less than perfect will cost you the whole thing. I guess this is because they ask medium level questions, but who knows.

Very nice interviewer. Very casual. No BS intro and talking points. Actually, read the CV before the interview. The interview was as scheduled for 45 minutes. 2 questions, knowledge of javascript internals and DOM manipulation.

Interview
I went through the phone screening process (three easy questions) and scheduled the following interview which never materialized (canceled due to too many
recruitment processes opened at the company, probably cost-cutting measures). That is understandable, but I have wasted some time on the preparation.

Question 1
- the difference between apply/call
- balanced BST complexity
