I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta
Interview
Honestly, as a seasoned recruiter, this process was such a joke. I was a passive candidate -- the recruiter reached out to me for the open opportunity. I currently work for a successful, well known company in the Bay Area so not necessarily eager to leave, but as we all know in recruiting -- you should always take the call. However, the recruiter for the role (who is very junior and inexperienced) was incredibly vague and couldn't give any basic information about the job (team structure, functional org unit, etc) so couldn't effectively hook me on the opportunity. We had an initial phone screen -- two weeks went by and I never heard back. Doesn't exactly inspire confidence in this recruiting organization...

Question 1
How do your personal values influence you at work?
Initial phone screen with a recruiter, once confirmed moving to the next step, had a prep call. After that, it was a virtual interview with 4 individuals (hiring manager + cross-functional partners) and then an offer.

Question 1
There were questions around recruiting metrics, leadership, performance management, cross-functional and stakeholder partnerships, etc.
Several rounds with the sourcing team, then several rounds with various teams and levels of the org. Much longer process than most companies to try and find the best alignment.
