I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Feb 2023
Interview
Similar to most TPM interviews at Meta, tech screen, behavioral, leadership review etc. Overall process was smooth, but i did not get an offer as this was between first and second rounds of layoffs, and the role has since been removed.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Design considerations, kpi’s, success criteria of a automatic speaker detection system. Possible failure modes and troubleshooting deep dive.
1 phone screen went well covering technical and program management questions. I answered all of them. I moved to the full loop step with 5 virtual onsite rounds that included one sys design round in which I didn't do well.

Question 1
How do you design a data center? Explain the process from start to end.
Recruiter Screen, Hiring Manager Screen and then interview loop. The recruiter screen was brief and hiring manager screen was about 45 minutes. Overall very smooth process with the scheduling and even rescheduling.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Experience, TPM - program sense and technical know how, system design
Very hard - 9 questions in 30 minutes with no guidance or help. All technical questions so extremely hard, cannot help more because it was so hard. Also rude interviewer, almost as if he didn’t want to be there
