The intervieweer was very nice and mostly asked about my experiences and my understanding of the role. At the end of the conversation I was told that the team manger would call me also and also what I should prepare for this next conversation. The team manger went more in depth with the questions.

Analyst, Sales Operations at Facebook

No Offer – Interviewed in Dublin, Dublin (Ireland) Mar 2012 – Reviewed Jul 5, 2012

Interview Details – My initial contact with Facebook was a call from a recruiter to arrange a time for a phone screening. The recruiter was very friendly and helpful, and offered some more information about the details of the role. The initial phone screening was a more in-depth conversation with the same recruiter: we talked about my experience, my education, and my knowledge of Facebook's advertising model.

Following that, we arranged another phone interview with the team leader. Again, we talked about my own experience, similar projects I worked on in the past, my knowledge of Facebook advertising and suggestions for how I would improve it. The team lead also gave me more hands-on knowledge of what the role required and asked how I would go about it.

Finally, I was invited for a few hours of on-site interviews: a 1:1 interview with the department manager, a 2:1 interview with a couple of team members, another 2:1 interview with some other team members, and finally a presentation to the whole group. It could be a daunting experience but everyone was very encouraging and friendly.

Unfortunately, the team felt I wasn't perfect for the role, so I wasn't offered the job. However, I got a great impression from the people I met and I'd happily apply for other roles with Facebook in the future.

User Operations Analyst at Facebook

No Offer – Interviewed in Dublin, Dublin (Ireland) Feb 2012 – Reviewed Mar 19, 2012

Interview Details – After the first phone interview with HR, I got invited for onsite interviews with 4 different employees. There was the manager of the team, 2 seniors from different teams as well as a senior team member. Really nice people and nice chats, they make you feel very welcome and comfortable. The questions were not mean, just very open and apparently, I should have brought more examples from previous work/life situations in order to prove my points.

Interview Question – Can you make suggestions how to improve the Help Centre?   Answer Question

User Operations Analyst at Facebook

No Offer – Interviewed in Dublin, Dublin (Ireland) Jun 2011 – Reviewed Jul 15, 2011

Interview Details – After having applied for the user operations analyst in Dublin, I have been contacted by the recruitment manager of the Facebook office in Dublin. The tone of her e-mail was very polite and friendly. I was requested some background information such as my past and current employer and salary indication. Also, I was given detailed instructions for a writing test for the second language required for this position. The test lasted 1 hour and 15 minutes and consisted of four questions: the first I had to respond in English and the second two in my second language.
After I completed the test, I have received an email from the recruitment manager that they will contact me again once they have the results. Yet, it has been three weeks and I have not heard from them. I assume that they have found a more suitable candidate.
