As a candidate, I went through a structured, multi-step process: a recruiter screen to confirm fit and timeline, a technical interview focused on SQL, metrics, and experiment design, then two virtual interviews on product sense and analytical reasoning. The final loop combined a deep-dive case and a behavioral interview. Communication was clear, expectations were set in advance, and I received consolidated feedback within two weeks.

Question 1
“Design an experiment to measure the impact of a ranking change on 7-day retention—what is the primary metric, guardrails, sample size, and how do you handle novelty effects?”
Total 7 rounds: first round for resume screening, second for technical screening, then for on-site virtual with 4 interviews back to back, then hiring manager round after team matching and then salary negotiation with HR

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.
