M1 Meta offer. Wondering which teams/orgs are the most fun

I recently cleared the m1 loop and am currently setting up HM calls for team matching. Would love to hear about which orgs are the most fun, and ideally, support a remote m1 position. Any advice on updated comp ranges to target would be awesome too. To give back, here's how I prepared, nothing super different from other advice already out there: 1. Behavioral/People Management: went through resume and noted specific instances of challenges + learning -- made sure I could clearly and cripsly articulate the problem + impact. I think it's important to show empathy and how you've grown people in the past/performance management. 2.Coding: did ~20 LC questions tagged for fb. I made sure to target different types of problems that require use of different approaches/datastructures. 3. System Design: Made a list of non-functional requirements to clarify (latency/throughput/#of users/datavolumen/security/privacy). Mapped what tech/datastores fit which general usage patterns. I didn't spend time on specific walkthroughs on youtube (eg: design youtube/netflix etc). TC:~500k. 9yoe. New TC: need to get back to meta with a number. #meta #m1 #team-matching #negotiation #

Which office are you applying to? Are you by any chance a German speaker? If so it would be super interesting to hear how you made the jump into big tech.

Amazon nRID60 OP Mar 22, 2022

I'm in the US. In terms of big tech, I have a bunch of startup experience so have stayed close to the technical side + had a bunch of people management challenges that I've had to manage over time. I've been reluctant to get into big tech, but amazon helped me see the scope+impact possible there so enjoying the transition.

Congratulations ! How long did it take to get the response after your onsite ? I completed my onsite a little over a week ago and waiting for the response.

Amazon nRID60 OP Mar 22, 2022

thanks and good luck! It took 1-2wks to hear back the decision, but the recruiter was in touch in terms of expected timelines.

Amazon stela Mar 22, 2022

Congrats - making the same move myself!

Amazon nRID60 OP Mar 22, 2022

Amazon stela Mar 24, 2022

Done a little over a month ago :)

Same here , trying to get more suggestions for team matching

Meta Yeee Haw Mar 28, 2022

Don’t do external team matching. Insist on bootcamp
