Any tips for applying through the Meta job portal? The job portal seems to screw up with importing my resume with the way it reformats my work experience. Do you guys just change how you describe your work experience in the job portal compared to your resume to make it fit that format, or just use what's on your resume? I've had absolutely no luck getting an interview via the job portal even for jobs I feel I'd be a perfect fit for based on the job description and my own experience.

  • You pretty much need a referral to get any traction at Meta

      Not true. I got contacted by Meta recruiter literally the day after I cold applied on their website. No previous FAANG on my resume.

      That’s not true @capone. I just declined a low-ball offer from Meta and didn’t have a referral. You need a recruiter to reach out to you or to at least qualify for the role you’re applying for.
