How difficult is it to start at Facebook Seattle as a new grad?

The default location is MPK but I'd prefer working in Seattle. Apparently I need to have my recruiter send an application to work in remote offices. What are the actual odds of starting at Facebook Seattle as a new grad? Is there any specific reason that they value more? Thanks.

I don't think they necessarily value Seattle more but rather that there is less space and more demand for the FB Seattle. I do know one company always hiring in Seattle though if you really want to move there😉

Seattle should work out. London and NYC are the hard ones for new grads.

They're hiring aggressively in Seattle. My recruiter was more than happy to put in the request when I mentioned wanting to work in Seattle.

Thanks. Were you a returning intern?

Nope, regular new grad.
