It took about 2 weeks. First the recruiter called me and we scheduled a time for tech phone screen.
Phone screen: one part of SQL questions and one part of product analytic questions
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Both parts relate to SPAM. SQL calculate # of posts that are SPAM yesterday. What percent of contents users view are actually SPAM
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Nov 2018
Interview
This position is very analytics. Onsite includes a presentation (for PhD), 2 rounds of case interview, 1 round of SQL, 1 round of probability & statistics. Pretty nice experience and nice office building.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Londres, Inglaterra) in Dec 2018
Interview
Through employee referral, I first had a non-technical phone screen with a recruiter. I was then asked to do a live coding interview with a FB data scientist (split screen; half video half coding). The interviewer was a nice and well meaning person (even gave hints), however I failed to solve a (in hindsight) quite doable coding challenge. I was asked to apply again in six months or so.
