      Data Scientist (Analytics) Interview

      Aug 23, 2018
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Minneapolis, MN
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta (Minneapolis, MN) in Nov 2017

      Interview

      I submitted a resume through an alum. A recruiter reached out to me for a phone conversation to schedule interview time and gave me resources to prepare. I scheduled the interview a few weeks out so I could review my SQL. I could choose to program in SQL, Python (pandas) or R. One the day of the video call, my interviewer was a little late and wasn't very friendly. He described a database and asked me to write query to get specific information. Then he asked more BI questions on how I'd interpret certain metrics. I ran out of time on both tasks. The second part would benefit from more familiarity with FB-specific ways of measuring growth. I didn't get to the next round.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Write query to detect a certain bug (that the interviewer described) from this data?

      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Feb 2024

      Interview

      Firstly, the recruiter emailed me some questions, including basic inquiries about my background, projects I've worked on, and how I approach product cases. The interview process consisted of two rounds, each comprising a mix of technical questions, behavioral assessments, and product case studies. In the initial round, the focus was on technical proficiency, evaluating my knowledge and skills relevant to the role. This involved discussing past projects in detail, demonstrating problem-solving abilities, and assessing my understanding of key concepts within the field. The second round delved deeper into behavioral questions, aiming to gauge my interpersonal skills, communication abilities, and how I approach challenges in a team environment. Additionally, I was presented with more complex product cases, requiring me to analyze scenarios, propose solutions, and articulate my reasoning effectively. Overall, the interview process provided a comprehensive assessment of both my technical capabilities and my suitability for the role in terms of teamwork, problem-solving, and product understanding.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Some python and sql questions. Some product cases, for example, they launched reel, but the time spent decreased. they asked you to provide reason and solution.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Meta

      Interview

      The first section of the interview was a case analysis, and the second section of the interview covered two SQL questions. The SQL questions were quite similar to Leetcode's "medium" difficulty questions – I would recommend using Leetcode to prepare for your Facebook DS/Analytics interviews!

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Two SQL questions and one case question.
