I applied through an employee referral. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (London, England) in Jan 2015
Interview
A friend referred me for the position at Liverail. An internal facebook recruiter reached out and she scheduled a discussion with me.
We chatted and she knew very very little about the potential roles and gave information that seemed largely conflicting - so I arranged for an 'informal discussion' with a SE currently at Facebook.
This informal discussion turned out to be a phone interview.
In the mean time the recruiter had reached out to all my colleagues at my current place of work offering them the exact position I was applying for.
The facebook recruiter never got back to me with any feedback about the phone screen - even though the recruiter kept chatting with my colleagues.
All around a very poor process, and offensive that they didn't even get back with a response, whether it was yes or no. Worse still that they approached all my colleagues.
I wouldn't recommend interviewing with Facebook unless you want the same thing to happen with you. Would have expected much better.
