Me postulé a través de un reclutador. Acudí a una entrevista en Meta (Menlo Park, CA) en may 2026
Entrevista
The first step was technical screening, 2 SQL question, one easy, one medium. The rest of the questions were on metrics, A/B testing, diagnoses, and trade-offs.
The full loop had 4 parts:
Your four interview titles were:
1. DS Analytical Reasoning: Very similar to the screening without SQL
2. DS Analytical Execution with Josefina: Product sense, and some analytical questions.
3. AI-Native DS Technical Skills: This was a SQL question, mostly solved by AI assistant.
4. DS Behavioral : You choose a project, or a situation you handled in the company, and they keep asking questions.

A friend who worked at Meta recommended I apply, which led to a direct connection with the hiring team. My interview journey included a technical screen focused on product metrics and a behavioral interview. The final round faced me with a practical question about measuring success for a new push notification feature. Funny enough, I had found similar questions in the company-specific prompt section on PracHub, which helped me approach it confidently. Ultimately, I received an offer but decided to decline it for personal reasons.

How would you measure the success of a new push notification feature on Instagram? Walk through your primary metric, guardrail metrics, how you'd design the A/B test (randomization unit, sample size, duration), and the tradeoffs between short-term engagement lift and long-term retention impact.

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.
