I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meta (Seattle, WA) in Jul 2025
Interview
First round interview. It is very standard META interview, All are SQL and Product Sense questions. It is very similar to an IC interview, no specific question relevant to manager.
the interview was a bit difficult and the SQL questions will take much longer than 20 mins. the interviewer was in a hurry and tried to finish the interview early.
