I am from new york and see a job opportunity in menlo park. due to personal reasons, i cant move out of this area. Is work from home right off the bat an acceptable idea in fb? I understand there will be some bootcamp and i can choose a team after that but i would eventually gravitate towards this field (security, information, etc) as Im interested in that area and my experience is in it. The ones I am interested seem to be in menlo park. thanks in advance edit: all this is subject to the condition that i complate the loop and they offer me a position. but i still wanted to know so that i can say this clearly if i speak to a recruiter
Unfortunately. I’m just interested in that team and position. I’m interested in a specific field of security and can’t deviate.
How do you know there’s no similar team in nyc? Anyway, doesn’t hurt to apply and ask that before the interviews. Working remotely from nyc for that mpk team ‘never’ happens. The only way would be for you to be a field expert that FB had decided as a *must* hire (this is exceptionally rare).
And I’m definitely no field expert
Just work in nyc?
Never heard of anyone doing this
Thanks for all the answers. I’ll go back and re-evaluate my options
Recruiter won’t let you and won’t even try to help u. You must be hired first and work for some times before even attempting to relocate with special reason. Remember there are many local candidates straight from Bay Area and seems “closer” to hire.
That makes sense
They did it for John Carmack. So maybe they'll do it for you.
@vqkg57 anyway you’d be able to lend a referral for Oath in nyc? For swe role
Don’t
Don’t go for oath?
You will get lot of opportunities to work from home in the evenings and nights and weekends. But you'll have to be in office during the day time.
