How it went
The interview process for the Data Scientist role at Meta aligned with expectations. Candidates were tested on SQL, requiring them to define and then code metrics. Product sense questions focused on measuring the success of products or features, with follow-up inquiries. The technical assessment included probability and statistics problems, presented in a textbook style, alongside experimentation-based questions.
