“The process started with a recruiter screening testing some behavioral questions and some technical questions she read from a question bank. Then, I did a coding interview online. Finally, a 4 rounds loop online (as opposed to my previous attempt when I did the loop in one of their London (UK) offices): 2 coding interviews, 1 system design, 1 behavioral with an engineering manager.”
“The process was standard, with a recruiter chat first, then scheduling round 1 with 2 PMs: 1 on product sense and the other on metrics. Product sense - the interviewer likes to know how you frame the problem, set goals, and how it ties with the overall company strategy. Make sure to be concise and walk users through problems to solutions before time is up.”
“Fairly solid process. Recruiter was helpful with quick turnaround. Felt a little rushed during team match”
“The process was very straightforward. In both technical rounds, I was asked questions from the top 50 Meta tagged LC questions list. Behavioral was also very standard.”
“Clear, some interviews are chiller than others. Just need to put in the work and you'll be okay. Should know all of the Meta products well enough to do an interview on them. ”
“It was hard. Two medium leet code in 45 minutes and you're alright. System Design needs lots of practice and quick explanations.”
“Overall pretty straightforward, their interviews are pretty standard and are not there to surprise you. Recruiter and interviewers were professional. ”
“It was nothing different than the guide they give you. Just learn everything on there are it is a straight forward interview. It is a rolling hiring so you can schedule your interview a month out so you can study specifically for Meta related case study questions ”
“Overall the interview process went very smoothly. I was suprised at the time to get an AI related product sense question since the majority of the ones I had prepared were more standard (solution for education or volunteering as an example) but I used structured thinking to walk through it. Make sure to state any assumptions have you along the way while going through your answer. ”

“The weirdest Anthropic round was the company values interview. It was almost like a therapy session, and honestly if you went to a therapist at some point, you will pass that round much more easily.”
“What was very unusual is they didn’t give me any tooling to draw the system design, so I just sketched it on a piece of paper and talked them through it, then we got into this oddly deep debate about whether hover-over history should count as a recommendation signal.”
