Interview
Met recruiter at career fair, they directly setup an on-campus interview. We were taken into a room with an engineer who presented a question on the whiteboard and were given about 30-40 mins to solve it. There were supposedly gonna be only 2 interviews. I passed the first interview but could not solve the second one's question in time.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
It's a large company, but interviewing was definitely a more robotic process. The technical interviewer seemed checked out and didn't explain interview process well. At the end of the interview the interviewer only talked about himself, so I figured I wasn't in the running anymore.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Meta (Vancouver, BC) in Jan 2022
Interview
The interview was okay and I solved two questions but didn’t pass the first round, hard to tell and didn’t get the feedback why I was failed. Probably they don’t have headcount?
