Saw somewhere that Meta is pausing hiring on the E4 roles, as apparently there is already a lot of backlog for the team matching process. Is this true? Can a Metamate confirm this? I have onsite coming up and seeing this makes me think that the onsite will simply be a dummy interview with no foreseeable positive outcome. I do see the E4 roles still listed on their careers page but unsure what’s going on.
I have seen recruiters cancel interviews if a given level is no longer wanted. The fact that your onside is still on is promising. Good luck!
Thank you. The policy now is even if you pass the interviews, you need to match with a team to get an offer. That’s why the news was concerning
There is a discord channel for everyone who are in matching phase. It seems that the backlog is increasing for all roles e3-e6. I think they might pause for a while until new openings are not processed.
Could you share the link of the channel? I can DM.
i'd like to know the discord as well, please link or dm
Hundreds of people stuck in team matching at all levels for all locations. Except maybe E6+ those people look like they are matching pretty quickly.
Damn.
E4 roles aren’t for new grad unless you have significant experience before masters. For new grad it is E3. And can confirm there is a lot of people in the pipeline, around 1500 engineers last time I asked my recruiter in February.
How do u know about E3 pipeline? How many E3 will they hire
My recruiter told me about it? I wanted to talk with more teams, so that’s why she told me
Meta E4 isn’t new grad.
Well considering I am a new grad PhD and interviewing for one I’d say it is. Could be just for PhDs though
If you have zero experience yes, you need to start at E4. Otherwise with 3 YoE you should target E5.
