Facebook Machine Learning design interview

Is Facebook ML design interview more focused on algo or more on system design? What should be covered more. Not asking for sample questions but directions. Thanks

Neither actually, more focused on ML. For example: how would you build an ad click prediction system, or homefeed ranking system, or translation service, or query ranking model etc. A lot of ML specific details with some system design aspects.

I presume general algo questions will still be asked by some other technical interviewers (and behavioral questions by non-tech interviewers), correct? Can you give the breakdown of styles of questions that will be asked?

Yeah standard algo and system design questions will be asked. Behavioral is usually chatting about your background and projects.

Behavioral is also asked by technical people : senior IC or managers
