I will say the personal interaction I had with Meta recruiters (especially the initial technical sourcer) and interviewers in general was the best I've ever had with any company.

They are really good. Unfortunately some of the coordination roles have been outsourced lately so people are having more hiccups there especially with timezones but the recruiters and sources are top notch.
Makes me wish I knew C++ and could work for Christian's team! I'm a frontend JS developer, very excited about the future of AI (especially the UI that will arise), and talking with Meta recruiters as well. Keep up the great content, this channel has already been super helpful!
The Best candid interview I have ever watched in KZread to understand Hiring Manager Mind set in the current AI Era......Great Stuff
Probably best interview from a Meta EM I’ve seen. Very insightful. Thanks for this. Please keep them coming ❤🔥
Such a fun listen. Looking forward to more of these!
Always enjoy your insights. Thanks for hosting the interview! I wonder how much OpenSource Development would help in team-matching or interviews
Great interview, what was the name of that "how to learn" book that stefan was talking about?

@@hello_interview Thanks a lot, could you also add links to eng blogs that you/stefan recommend, or found the most useful.
But…but there are a lot of times recruiter himself/herself is the biggest uncertain factor… variations are huge.

Not all companies are like this! Best to work with someone who knows how things operate on the inside.
So many candidates are in team match for months...

This is Stefan and no, though I have heard people tell me I look like one of the vampires in Blade. Always the villains ...
