I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in June 2020
Interview
I was contacted by a recruiter on email through LinkedIn. Had a phone screening round with the recruiter where she asked general work related questions.
This was followed up with a screening round for Product Sense and Product Execution. Had interesting conversations. The next day the recruiter reached out to me with the feedback that I have been selected for the next round.
The final round also happened online. The first interview was "Leadership and Drive". The interview focused mostly on my past experience. Do make sure you prepare for potential in-depth follow-up questions. Had 2 more interview rounds for Product Sense and Execution respectively.
Few days later, the recruiter contacted me with the feedback that I didn't make it.
Overall, I really enjoyed the process of preparing for FB. I would suggest to approach this interview with little expectations because there is a lot of competition in companies like FB. That leaves very little margin for error in your interviews. Take this as an opportunity to have interesting conversations with smart people and along the way become a little better than what you were yesterday.
The process began with an initial recruiter phone screen focused on my background, product experience, and interest in Meta. This was followed by a series of virtual interviews covering product sense, analytical thinking, execution, and behavioral questions. Interviewers asked me to work through product design scenarios, discuss how I would prioritize competing opportunities, define success metrics, and describe examples of cross-functional collaboration and stakeholder management.
The final round consisted of multiple back-to-back interviews with product managers and cross-functional partners. Overall, the process was structured, professional, and challenging. The interviewers were engaged and provided clear expectations for each interview.
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.
