Facebook Leadership Recruiting

What are they all about? And why are they contacting me. Is this for quota purposes or just canvassing the lay of the land. Should I ignore it?

You’re laughing. I thought it was a joke too.

Do you have leadership experience? If not then it's probably quota. They have a rule that all senior positions need at least one minority applicant

Intuit EC OP Jan 13, 2019

I do. But what does minority mean in this instance, just not a white male?

Google wuEm63 Jan 13, 2019

Can't be Asian male either. Some other minorities also ignored. Preference for women, black, Latino.

Leadership recruits are needed for growth, and about diversity is the same across tech industry

I got the same interest from Facebook as well. Bullsh*** diversity leadership role. I passed. Definitely felt like an interview quota.

Thank you, preesh.

They call it as a Diversity candidate, the more diverse you are the more brownie points they score. LGBTQ and African Americans, Latina women score. Unfortunately, Asian does not count

It was actually for a real job. I was surprised by that.

Did you go through their hiring process? What was it like?

Intuit EC OP Feb 27, 2019

I have for IC, not leadership. IC was grueling and stupid. Left a bad taste in my mouth. And took months. Maybe that’s why I was already so put off I didn’t pursue this one. First impressions are hard to shake. Also it was MPK and I want SF.
