Are laid off meta employees blacklisted? Got caught in the big layoff in November 2022. I’ve tried re-applying to meta countless times and cannot get an interview. I was wondering if any of the higher up meta employees here knew the answer to this question. If we are blacklisted, how long until I can interview again? TC: 178 YOE: 3 #meta
I got laid off and came back, so I doubt it.
Most likely yes. I’m sorry.
A more fundamental question Why apply countless times if they are strongly hinting you are (for now) not needed there...
Cuz TC and Prestige
It depends on your rating and if your manager marked you as non regrettable attrition. Lots of former Meta employees are coming back, so it’s individualized based on previous performance.
Non regrettable means not rehirable?
Yes
Is there a rating based blacklist? I am assuming they wont hire back if the rating was below meets all?
It’s a hit or miss! Ask for a referral to increase interview chances!
If they’ve been marked as non regrettable attrition, a referral isn’t going to help.
How can you tell if you’re a non-regrettable attrition?
Easy. Apply to any position and see how long it takes to get a rejection.
It all depends on your last rating. If it’s below MA, you’re bound to have a hard time.
I didn’t have a rating. I was only employed for 4 months.
What was your last rating?
Didn’t have one. I got laid off only 4 months into employment
