I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Jan 2024
Interview
The Data Science Manager role interview process at Meta involved several stages. It started with a recruiter call, followed by personal, leadership, and technical interviews. The technical interview focuses on SQL, data structures, and problem-solving. Later stages included product-sense and leadership interviews, where you’re assessed on your ability to apply data science to business problems, manage teams, and lead product decisions
