I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Meta in Mar 2020
Interview
Interviewer was very curt. Was not willing to clarify requirements and rushed me into the solutions. On top of that the video conference connectivity was terrible on the interviewer's end and she was very impatient/not willing to listen. It felt like the decision was made even before she asked the question.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Austin, TX) in Mar 2020
Interview
Initial phone screen and then two 45 minute Bluejeans interviews.
During my first Bluejeans interview, a dog took a p00h. No kidding!
My interviewer was sitting in front of a very large window with the blinds open. The room was on the first floor next to a parking lot. During the first 20 minutes of the interview, we got to see several people walking and cars driving by. Needless to say, it was a distraction. The final straw was when a man stopped in front of the window and let his dog p00p on the grass two feet away from the window. It was then that I finally asked the interviewer to finally close the blinds. Took me and the ghost interviewer to stop laughing. Huge distraction.

Question 1
How would you use FB to create a doctor referral program?
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Meta in Feb 2020
Interview
I had 2 back to back phone screens and moved onto onsite. I would say FB recruiters are the least responsive recruiters I ever worked with.
My onsite experience is mostly positive except for my execution interview. First of all, they made me video call without even telling me it was going to be a video call until the interview started. I was planning to utilize the whiteboard, and I couldn't write anything to the interviewer because the conference room didn't have a write function.
Second of all, my interviewer was kinda pushy/aggressive/rude and would interrupt me before I can finish, and ask me questions that I already just mentioned prior. You can argue that I could have done better leading and connecting with this interviewer; my general sense was that he was just giving off this jerky vibe and didn't really give me a chance to fully form my thought. How did he ever pass interviewer training? Some of his questions was kinda condescending too? I suggest FB to better train their interviewers.
