I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Jan 2017
Interview
Went through a friend's referral. From the point of referral to getting a sourcer assigned took almost 3 weeks. I guess it's because PM jobs in FB are too hot.
After agreeing the date/time for initial call with the sourcer, the sourcer missed the call. So had to re-schedule. The sourcer then missed the second time. I had to ask my friend to ping HR to find out what's going on, and get the sourcer to call me.
After finally getting the initial call with the sourcer, we scheduled first two phone interviews. No prep material was sent to me. One is on Execution, and the other on Product Sense.
On the day of the interview, where the first was about Product Sense, but the questions being asked was around Execution more. Later, the sourcer told me that the first interviewer thought that she was interviewing Execution and gave me Execution questions. The second interviewer, who was originally setup to interview Execution couldn't switch to interview Product Sense, and therefore the 2nd interview had to be re-scheduled.
The coordination of FB's recruiting team is a complete mess, and there's no follow-up afterwards. I kind of gave up from my side too given what happened and would rather focus on my current job.
I applied through other source. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Meta in Nov 2016
Interview
I was approached by a Facebook recruiter through linkedin,having a breif call with her followed by an interview with a product manager using bluejeans software app.
Prior to the inteview, i received a breif explenation from the recruiter followed by a document on which areas the interview will focus, and I felt the document was helpful in preparing for the inteview.
The interview was short (less than 40 minutes). Two days after the interview I received a rejection from the recruiter.
In general I would say that the people in the procedure were kind, and helpful.
