I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Meta in Jul 2015
Interview
So far have had 3 interviews and am going onsite for further interviews (I am an international candidate). First was a "general chat" lasting about an hour, including some basic technical questions about the Objective-C runtime. Second and third interviews were technical/coding challenges - an easier question and harder question. Coding is done in a shared online code editor. At every stage the recruitment contact has been *very* helpful, and the technical interviewers were also great to get along with.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Given two unsigned integer values, write a function that returns the first divided by the second. You cannot (of course) use div or mod operators - only addition, subtraction and multiplication. Discuss the strengths/weaknesses/algorithmic complexity of your solution. Is there a better way to do it? If so, what, and what is its complexity?
Spoke with interviewer over video conferencing. He was very communicative . He answered my questions. Asked me BFS question. A question that involved BFS search. Given a matrix, I am suppose to find a path from top left to down right.

The technical round hit me with a classic array manipulation problem: moving zeroes to the end without disrupting the order of non-zero elements. As I tackled it, I felt a wave of familiarity wash over me; I had just practiced a similar challenge on PracHub. The rest of the interview followed a straightforward path, with some easy behavioral questions sprinkled in. Overall, it felt very easy, but I wasn’t quite the right fit for what they needed, so I didn’t receive an offer.

Move zeroes in an array to the end while keeping non-zero element order, in place
1 leetcode med, 1 leetcode hard. make sure you know your DSA and leetcode questions. I wasn't able to get an offer bc i didnt complete the second question. Got a reply 2 days later saying they would move on
