I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Meta (London, England) in Jul 2022
Interview
Very in-depth covering stats, ML, coding and behavioural. They provide a lot of time and resources to prepare. Overall a good experience and you learn a lot from it. Don’t underestimate the behavioural interviews, it is worth spending a lot of time preparing for those. There are a lot of great resources online particularly some YouTube channels dedicated to this kind of prep.

I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
Completed 3 rounds of the process, which includes the initial recruiter screen, technical, full loop, and team matching.
Couldn't move past the full loop interview. The interview was very engaging, and I actually enjoyed working through the cases. No crazy questions.
