I have interviewed with facebook for a data scientist role and the 1st round intervew went quite well. Some SQL questions followed by product sense. The next day a different recruiter from facebook reaches out to talk about an alternate DS role. Does this mean it is a reject for the 1st round?
Curious what the offer is for DS
$150k + 10% + $160k(rsu) + a small sign on bonus
Nope. The recruiter tries to find the right team for you. If it's a rejection they don't even refer your profile to other team.
Got a reject today from the first team. My best guess would be a team fit issue.
Same happened with me for Tesla, if they think you are good- the teams (that interviewed you) themselves refer you to other teams.
Did they ask you to complete visa assessment form?
Yeah that already happened
Are you STEM by any chance?
Which DS roles are they? It's likely that both recruiters are interested.
Do you how bad WLB is at FB for DS?
Have a few friends who work as DS. They do not complain much. You had any thoughts to share?
Yea, my friends work there too. She left work at 4 everyday but log back online from 9 til midnight. Sounds pretty bad.
I thought they didn’t do team matching during the interview? I was told it’s basically an interview for generalist DS analytics then team matching is done during the first month.
What kind of SQL questions?
Joining multiple tables and calculating aggregated values with conditional filters.
How did you prepare? I only know basic SQL
