First got contacted submitting a form online, answering some simple questions like experience in statistics/hypothesis testing. Then a short call was scheduled and similar questions are repeated over the phone, followed by technical questions.
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Philadelphia, PA) in Oct 2018
Interview
Was selected for a 15-minute phone screen after on campus recruiting, and then proceeded to next round’s 45 minutes video interview, which consists of introduction, data manipulation/calculation using SQL and product question. Was rejected the second day after the interview, even though I thought I did well. Overall decent interview experience.

Question 1
Metrics to measure success/failure of one Facebook product
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in May 2018
Interview
Very similar to the process described in other reviews. Recruiter reached out on Linkedin, had a video interview on SQL and product execution. Recruiter got back within 2 days that I passed the round. Then I chose a date for onsite interview few weeks later and they flew me out to Menlo Park office. At onsite, 4 rounds with lunch in between. Each round is 30min, definitely flies by. I did well on SQL and Stats rounds but could've done better on product and data interpretation rounds. Got a sense that these rounds might be weighted heavier than the technical rounds. Stats questions were directly from the list of questions you'd see on Glassdoor.

Question 1
How will you analyze if launching stories is a good idea? What data would you look at?
3 SQL questions based on dummy data on Ads. How will you write a query to calculate ROI, then per source etc. Simple group by and subqueries. Just need to keep in mind your join conditions.
