Efficient interviews, although quite a number of them. It was a good opportunity to meet many stakeholders to help make an informed decision on the role and company. Overall, a professional recruitment process that wanted candidates to perform at their best.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Competency based question - Tell us about a time when you managed difficult stakeholders?
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
Hiring manager phone interview, final onsite meeting with the team members then was notified I didn't get the role. I had a good experience until the last step. After putting in a lot of effort prepping for the interview, I got a very generic rejection email from the recruiter. I understand that fb get a lot of candidates but I think it is a common courtesy to at least call the candidate and offer some context/feedback after a full onsite interview.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Nov 2016
Interview
Had a phone screening (30min) then an onsite interview (3 30-minute interviews face to face). Went over why Facebook, what analytics would I use to measure the performance of the business, my understanding of the role and how Facebook conducts business (works in that space), and lastly an SQL problem. It took 3.5 weeks (after I reached out to HR) for them to give me a rejection. Although I wasn't surprised with the result after the wait I think it is unprofessional to not give a status update after making the time to interview in person (seems like this is becoming the norm though)
