Process
An employee at Facebook referred me for this role, and the timeline for the whole process is based on your availability.
I had two rounds of telephonic interviews spread over two weeks in February. Two days after the second round, I received an email offering me an internship this summer.
The interviews are not very difficult if you have good basics of data structures and have studied CTCI.
