I applied online. I interviewed at Meta (Vancouver, BC) in July 2025
Interview
Scheduled a technical phone screen with recruiter had about a month to prepare, kind of hard to believe machine learning research scientist doesn't get tested on machine learning that much but just do leet code problems. Just review data structures and algorithms and do leet code. one month is kind of tight.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
7 Interviews, didn't receive an offer after the final round. Time-consuming process, which includes multiple rounds of technical interviews (design, coding, behavior, etc.) and a 1-hour research talk. The team leader was unpleasant to interact with.
recruiter call, technical interview, research interview, and job talk (presentation), hiring manager interview, everything was organized in the website so it was easy to navigate through the process, and recruiter was always responding super quickly
