Interview process

Basic process. I guess much shorter for interns. I think they just ranked us by our DSA scores and took on as many as their quota let them. Not too adverserial.

Tips from the candidate

Crack the OA/DSA round. Just basic mediums and some of the popular Hards. I think they put in cherry picker to help them better differentiate candidates. I have heard it's actually harder statistically to get a return offer for meta interships than FT.

Company culture

Pretty straight forward. Kinda opaque. Not like applying for startups where you can just hit up the recruiter with a reminder. You have to move at the pace they set.
