I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
The interview involved a typical face to face whiteboard question. Pretty easy question although I started off with a correct but non-optimal algorithm. Then with some help implemented a lower complexity algorithm.
Apparently starting off with a non-optimal solution is not acceptable, and syntax errors are also major issues so we didn't proceed to a second round.

The entire process usually takes 3–8 weeks, depending on scheduling and the specific role.

System design becomes increasingly important for E4+ positions.
