The interview process took several months. It started with a phone interview with the recruiter in February. After standing me up the first time (she did not call), we met for a brief 20min interview over the phone. A couple of weeks later, another interview with a team member of the team I was being considered for (not a specific position). About 30min over the phone. A couple of weeks go by and I get an email from the recruiter with the news that the team wanted to bring me for a face to face interview in Austin, TX (position was in Seattle). The 4 face to face interviews took the whole morning and they were great. All interviewers were professional, extremely clear in their question and also open in answering mine. Pretty good experience. I was then told that the final answer would come in 2 weeks. Two weeks go by and I get another email from the recruiter saying that they wanted yet another phone interview. Did that. Great feedback from the interviewer. Another 2 weeks go by and another email from the recruiter saying that I was selected for a role in the team and that the offer was being put together. She asked me if I could meet up the next day to discuss details. Meanwhile, I was supposed to send her 3 references of my previous work. That's is when the cat-and-mouse chasing and the awful experience starts. For a whole week, day after day she could not meet over the phone and postponed it. After that, she said that she was working on the offer details and would have news within a week. A couple of weeks go by with no updates and I get an email saying I need to go through yet another interview (after she told me the offer was on the way). I told her I was confused and she told me that this interview was with a senior leader in the organization just to assess what was the best role for me. The interview was schedule for 5 days later. The person who interviewed me was completely detached and asked me 2 questions, which I had already covered in the previous interviews. The whole thing took less than 10 minutes and it was clear that she was just following a script. The decision was made before the call took place. A week later I get an email from the recruiter saying that they changed their minds and that no offer was coming. Here is the funny part. The day after the last email, I get another email from the recruiter, one she had forwarded to me by accident. In this 20+ email thread around approval of my offer, the team discusses that there was disconnect between the pay grade of the offer and the level of the interviewers. Somewhere in the process there was a bug and the last interview was to fix it. But there was no way the interviewer (a Director) could have assessed my seniority and experiences in less than 10 minutes. It seemed to me someone changed their mind along the way and they needed a "graceful exit". My 2 pieces of feedback for Facebook Recruiting: 1. Never say an offer is coming until it really is. 2. Communicate often with candidates, do not leave them hanging for weeks at a time.
