I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Meta (New York, NY) in Apr 2018
Interview
The interview process was well structured. It followed exactly as recruiter explained in the email (and as mentioned on glassdoor).
There was one SQL question and one product sense question. I was able to complete the SQL question (could have done it faster), but didn't provide a clear, convincing answer for the product question
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
SQL question:
given a table of interaction between users (user_a | user_b | day), find number of users who had more than 5 interactions yesterday (assume there is only one unique interaction between a pair of users per day).
Product Question:
A user satisfaction survey was conducted for two groups of facebook users (each with 50 k sample size).
Group1: who had enabled certain login security features
Group 2: who had not enabled these security features.
It was found that user satisfaction with group1 was 30% lower than with group 2. Why do you think so? Comment on how the survey was conducted?
The Interview Process is very structured -
First Tech Screening round - 45 mins (usually can extend a bit depending on the interviewer)
- 2 SQL Questions ( Medium to Hard ) - based on Joins
Full Loop - 4 rounds 45 mins each.
- SQL
- Behavioral
- Analytical Execution - stats & prob, A/B testing, case study
- Analytical Reasoning - Case study
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Questions on Bayes Theorem, Probability distribution, etc.
I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
Completed 3 rounds of the process, which includes the initial recruiter screen, technical, full loop, and team matching.
Couldn't move past the full loop interview. The interview was very engaging, and I actually enjoyed working through the cases. No crazy questions.
It's all organized. Be prepared to showcase your depth of thinking. Two analytical rounds will make you think on your ability to solve probability and experimentation problems. Have a structure for everything
