I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Meta (Singapur) in Feb 2018
Interview
The interview was started with 2 round of phone screening. the first one with HR (Singaporean) and the second one with Team lead (Thai). In general they focus on your attitude and your take on problem, however, they also test you on the knowledge which related to the position. Then in my case, I have a special video conference interview with one of the manager level which then screen me further, similar content but they will push you more this time. I passed through the last round and fly to Singapore HQ for the last interview with multiple interviewers. The content cannot be disclosed due to NDA agreement but all I can say is, you really need to know the product and your position role. The result was negative, I did not get accepted but overall, it was a good experience.
The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Dublin, Dublin)
Interview
I was hesitant about aplkying or Facebook after seen all negative reviews however a recruiter reached out and asked if I'd take a call which I agreed to. After the call it took about a week for him to come back for a VC call with the hiring manager. I had the VC call which went fine so I was invited on sight after another week for a F2F interview. Again this went fine so I was invited to the final two F2F interviews which the first went great we had a lot in common and jelled really well however the last interviewer was so unprofessional that the minute she sat down she gave out about her colleagues calling them incompetent because they couldn't organise a room!! Straight away I felt uneasy however when she started reading questions from a sheet I felt we were finally getting to what I was there for however I felt she was so inexperienced and some responses to the questions she asked she couldn't understand? All through the interview she kept looking at the door at her colleagues going by and would wave and speak to them through the glass which I found so rude but at the end of the interview when she asked if I had any questions really took the biscuit as I asked a simple question about her current role and what she enjoys about it and she basically ran the place and people into the ground!! Not very professional at all!! I kind of got the feeling she didn't like how prepared and knowledgeable I was about the role!! After this interview even though I know I answered everything to how they would (or so I taught) wanted I got a feeling it would be her that wouldn't want toaccept me!! I feel they also just wanted to know what I bring to my current role as I'm well experienced in this area and they wanted to pass it off as their own contributes!! Anyway it's been over two weeks with no response which is disgraceful considering the time and effort I put in even an rejection email at least would suffice!!
Was contacted by a recruiter on LinkedIn. Had a phone screening and then a video interview with one of the account managers. Never heard back, not even a thank you email. Had another interview experience with Google which was a much more pleasant experience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How many likes are happening on Facebook in Singapore during 24 hours?
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Meta (Dublin, Dublin) in May 2019
Interview
Via referral got the call in the next days.
The CV went in the system 4 months ago by the time I had all the interviews and the feedback-less rejection.;
1 Recruiter call - fine, why Facebook and the role, some experience questions
2 Peer call - great! Super friendly, answered competency questions and pitched for 10 mins. Really enjoyed that.
3 On-site (postponed 3 times once a week). 3 people + 1 exercise with all of them. It was pain-free. Some tough questions to make you think.
I was rejected without explanation as they don't give feedback on interviews. For a company that has 2 billion peoples worth of DATA and BEHAVIOUR, they couldn't take 5 mins to explain over the phone (where there wouldn't be a paper trace for them if they are worried). Other companies in the market do give feedback, and they are just as large.
The interviewers were nice and give you positive signs but then no feedback.
Overall I won't be wasting my time again.
