Process
One phone screening with an easy question.
Three and a half onsite interviews followed.
The behavioral interview had no weight.
SQL and Algorithms writing were assessed.
Facebook does not want you to answer the questions correctly and verify them with test cases. They just rush through questions, counting on how many you can answer.
In the beginning of the interview, they would tell you that it will be like a conversation, but at the end, you will realize that they are rushing through a fake conversation and hold the conversation against you.
The recruiter had no courtesy to respond after the interview about when they would inform me. They informed me 8 days later after two follow-ups.
Questions
I answered all questions 100% correctly with proper explanations, but I'm still not sure what they wanted.
