How important is it to have an employee reference during the interview process. What is it used for? #meta #facebook #tech

Do you mean a referral to interview, or a meta employee being your reference during the reference check portion of the interview process

The latter

Ah - following this then. From what I’ve heard (anecdotally) a glowing internal reference can help if you’re borderline, but a bad internal reference can take you from a “yes” to a “no”… not a Meta employee though so take the above with a large grain of salt since it’s a secondhand accounting of advice I heard years ago.
Not sure because I was not referred
Did you apply directly on the careers site? Or reached out to recruiters?
I applied directly on the website. The reason they hired me was because I was the most qualified.
