I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
Apply online, recruiter reaches out, first round with team member, final round with 3-4 team members (manager included) via video. Questions ranged from describing past projects, systems implemented to behavioral (how do you deal with...) to some probability(easy card counting)
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Feb 2019
Interview
30 phone screen, 30 min skype technical interview, 2 hour on-site interview. On-site is fast paced. The recruiter said they would let me know of their decision within a week - its been over 3 weeks and I still haven't heard back despite multiple follow-up emails - very rude :(
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Product questions - determine if something if a product is successful - ask probing questions, define success, define metrics, evaluate impact on metrics systematically.
Stats questions - what do you expect the distribution of __ to look like - binomial distribution (expectation and variance), central limit theorem, repeated sampling.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Meta in Mar 2018
Interview
Phone screen with recruiter followed by technical phone screen with a Facebook Data Scientist on coding, SQL, machine learning, and statistics. Interviewer was somewhat hard to understand and time lacking, but questions were fair. Felt
