Had a video interview with Facebook on Thursday of last week. Interviewed with two sets of people; one for a portfolio review and the other for an app critique. Overall I felt both interviews went well. Both sets of people seemed engaged and enthusiastic with my work and my critiques. I followed up with the recruiter Friday afternoon and thanked him for the opportunity. He said that his fingers are crossed and he’ll have an answer by the end of this week. Obviously this week hasnt ended yet, but curious to know how long it takes to get feedback. Its technically been 4 days and a part of me is assuming that if I was a top candidate, then I would’ve been notified that I made it to the next round? Thoughts?
In theory people should have feedback in within 24 hours but often don't. It's possible things are fine - another day or two and you can be certain one way or the other.
Thanks!
Filtering-out candidates is quicker than filtering-in, especially in FAANG. So the higher the delay the better the news 'can' be. Outliers exist always
Appreciate the response!
Do you think that applies to internship positions as well?
You should be getting a good news this week. Rejection will be faster, I guess. I got an offer and had similar timelines. Also I think the recruiter may already know, but they cannot tell you until final approval. GL!
Thanks for the feedback!
Any update op?

Why are you asking for thoughts here. That's the dumbest thing to do. You aren't going to get any hint of your outcome here. It's all what your interview ers decided and "thought". Not blinders.
I think I’m more or less just curious to know what other people’s experiences are when it comes to interviewing with them. Obviously no one here will know for sure, but if it’s common that it’ll take a full week to hear back then that’s good to know. If the protocol is to notify people that didn’t make it further within the first day or two of their interview, then that’s helpful too.
