Envié una solicitud electrónica. El proceso duró 4 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Meta en jul 2017
Entrevista
Contacted by recruiter a few weeks after applying online. Initial phone screen with recruiter covered why I am interested in facebook and a short product case interview question about how I would design "friend search" from scratch. I didnt do a great job answering this qurstion, nevertheless i was invited to a follow up video interview. Next step was two 45 min video interviews: one about product sense, another about execution. The recruiter was very engaged throughout the whole process. He provided a guideline prior to the video interviews to explain the format of each. This enabled me to prepare, which was great because the questions were rather abstract. He also reached out to me a few days before the interview to see if I had any questions.
1st interview: product sense
How would you build "video home" on desktop?
2nd video interview: execution
Go back to 5 years ago when the like button on facebook was a simple feature. How would you improve it? During our discussion the interviewer asked the following questions: What would be your goal for this feature? What metrics would you identify to measure your goal? Define the metrics precisely - what would you measure exactly? How would you test the feature to determine if it is successful? This was a tough question because I was naturally inclined to explain the solution that already exists on facebook today, which is the feature with with emoticons that allows users to express of they are happy, sad, angry, etc. It would have been easier to have been asked to design a feature that didn't already exist. Overall the interviewers were professional, courteous, and asked questions that I felt reflected the skills needed to build innovative features on facebook. It was clear from the interview that I wasn't the right fit for Facebook.

how would you design the video homepage on desktop
The process began with an initial recruiter phone screen focused on my background, product experience, and interest in Meta. This was followed by a series of virtual interviews covering product sense, analytical thinking, execution, and behavioral questions. Interviewers asked me to work through product design scenarios, discuss how I would prioritize competing opportunities, define success metrics, and describe examples of cross-functional collaboration and stakeholder management.
The final round consisted of multiple back-to-back interviews with product managers and cross-functional partners. Overall, the process was structured, professional, and challenging. The interviewers were engaged and provided clear expectations for each interview.
Interview process was fairly straightforward. Recruiters are super helpful in getting you prepared for whats to come. Interviews got scheduled fairly fast, so having the momentum is great. Each interview only lasted about 30 minutes. from start to finish it took about 1 month
A multi-stage interview process that typically includes screening, technical and/or case assessments, and conversations with different stakeholders to evaluate both your skills and how well you’d work with the team and the role.
