I have an interview next month with FB DS, Product Analytics. The interview comprises of 5 main segments:

- Coding: Use Python or Sql to manipulate data frames / tables
- Quant: Miscellaneous statistics / probability
- Analytics Case: aka “Applied Data” case. Very specific operational questions about how to analyze a problem, what data to collect, what statistical tests to run, and how to interpret the results.
- Product Generalist (x2): Part behavioral e.g. “tell us about a time when you didn’t have enough data to solve a problem”, and part “what metrics would you use to solve this problem?” More open-ended and conceptual than the aforementioned analytics case.

Does anyone have experience with interviewing for this role at FB? I’m particularly curious about the Quant / Stats segment because it’s so open-ended and the prep materials were so fuzzy.

Current TC: 142

    I’m not sure they would test probability though? I interviewed w them 1.5 years back and did not recall any probability problems.

      So interesting! I wonder why they are bringing it back. Maybe more applicants so need to filter more? Either way, keep us posted and best of luck!!!!!

    If you pull two cards from a deck, what’s the probability that they’re the same suit. Relatively straightforward
