I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta in Dec 2019
Interview
One of the recruiter reached out to me and offer a position that has limited relevancy to my current work. During the call, I raised this issue and the recruiter said it was fine since Facebook values more on problem solving capabilities instead of directly-related work experience. After the call, I told the recruiter that I would like to apply for the postion based on the context he gave over the call. But never heard back from the recruiter again. Overall pretty weird experience but the email the recruiter used to send out info of the postion was from Facebook, so it was not a scam or anything.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Q: General questions on my past experience and willingness to join FB.
Interview process was fairly straightforward. Recruiters are super helpful in getting you prepared for whats to come. Interviews got scheduled fairly fast, so having the momentum is great. Each interview only lasted about 30 minutes. from start to finish it took about 1 month
A multi-stage interview process that typically includes screening, technical and/or case assessments, and conversations with different stakeholders to evaluate both your skills and how well you’d work with the team and the role.
