I applied online. The process took 6 days. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA)
Interview
1. Phone interview with recruiter. They're looking for enthiusiasm!
2. Onsite with boss and manager. They don't emphasize that you NEED to know how to code, but it certainly helps. You really ought to understand SQL well enough to do JOINS, UNIONS, GROUP BYs
3. Onsite with various people (engineer, product manager, two analysts/data scientists). Various Python and SQL questions. Was also asked to create or take an existing product on Facebook and come up with ways to drive engagement.

I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
Completed 3 rounds of the process, which includes the initial recruiter screen, technical, full loop, and team matching.
Couldn't move past the full loop interview. The interview was very engaging, and I actually enjoyed working through the cases. No crazy questions.
It's all organized. Be prepared to showcase your depth of thinking. Two analytical rounds will make you think on your ability to solve probability and experimentation problems. Have a structure for everything
