There are initial phone screening with the HR. Then if the phone call went well, you will be scheduled to two video conferences (45 min each) that focus on "Product Sense" and "Product Execution" types of questions. Then after that's passed, you will have a 2nd round of three video conferences (45 mins each). The topics are "Product Sense, Product Execution, and Leadership." Once you passed this round, there will be about 2 weeks of reviewing process before they send out the offer.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you measure the success of the Instagram story?
If you were the PM for FB dating app, and the users have dropped by 10%. What would you do?
My experience was strange. I had originally applied to 2 different open positions unrelated to PM. A few days later I received an email from a recruiter wanting to schedule a phone call with me. Fast forward to that day the recruiter never called and didn’t send an email mentioning anything changing. I then emailed them to ask about it but never received a reply back that whole day. Not sure what could have happened but I take it as highly unprofessional!
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Sep 2020
Interview
I was asked the same interview questions as were posted here on Glassdoor. I come with significant PM experience. The interviewers were very junior, who seem to follow a script and expect a scripted response. If you sway away from their scripted response, they don't know how to react and don't know how to ask further probing questions.
This interview has been one of the most derogatory interviews that I have been to. One of the interviewers was setting the stage initially on how great Facebook is and look its hiring during COVID too (which other companies are also doing in the software industry). This interviewer also said that one of the biggest reasons we are interviewing you is because this is the best time to hire cheap talent!!! This is what threw me off. First of all, she had no right to call me a cheap talent. I would like Facebook to look into each interviewer they pick.
