I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
The interview process was straightforward and well organized. It started with an initial recruiter or screening conversation about my background, research experience, technical skills, and interest in the role. The interviewer also asked behavioral questions about past projects, teamwork, and how I handled technical challenges. Overall, the process felt clear and professional.
