I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Meta in Sep 2015
Interview
Phone screen test of duration 45 mins where interviewer started with briefly describing what he works on and straight away went to asking the interview question. Towards the end he left 5 minutes for me to ask questions.

Question 1
Given a string 12345 and a alphabet to number mapping like a =1, b =2.., y=25, z=26 write a code to find number of possible alphabet strings from the given string.
E.x. string 12345 has possible alphabet strings as {lcde,awde, abcde}.
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.
