I applied online. I interviewed at Meta (Menlo Park, CA) in Apr 2026
Interview
5 rounds total- started with a recruiter screen, a tech phone screen, and then the virtual onsite loop (analytical reasoning, execution, tech, and behavioral). tbh it felt like regular conversation and not like getting grilled, may be I got good panel of interviewers lol. They even gave hints if i got stuck. A lot of focus on how you think, not just the final answer. Metrics and product impact come up in almost every round. for prep I read the Ace the Data Science Interview book, grinded LC for the sql stuff, and used this Meta DS guide on the Prepfully (esp product analytics + execution) which had really good deep dives on the execution rounds. plus the usual scrolling on blind and reddit.
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
