I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Meta (Phoenix, AZ) in Oct 2018
Interview
This is a phone call interview for HR screen. It is scheduled for 15-20 minutes. I thought they will ask some behavior questions and ask about my resume. But they didn't, they directly ask me SQL and database questions. They asked very short question, sometimes I just need to answer Yes or no, True or False, sometimes I just need to tell them the SQL command. I was very surprised that it's in this type of format.

Begins with an application review and recruiter screening, followed by a technical phone interview that assesses SQL, data modeling, data warehousing, ETL processes, and coding skills in languages such as Python or Java. Successful candidates then proceed to onsite or virtual interviews, which include multiple rounds covering coding, system design, data architecture, problem solving, and behavioral questions.
