“It was easy and helped me understand the role better before asking questions. This helped me tailor my responses better”
“Though I hold good amount of working experience in building AI products from 0 to 1. However, I lack in explaining them in layman term.”
“I didn’t get much feedback on the panel interview round but I found it helpful that the hiring manager was also on the call. I had a prior interview with him and he seemed to like my background. I didn’t execute well enough on the presentation side in my opinion. ”
“Easy normal behavioral questions and case study round was also easy cover every topics possible dont rely on AI tools”
“It went really well with the recruiter and hiring manager. The best part is they scheduled a short meeting to give you feedback on your application and interview. ”
“The XFN behavioral interviews were pretty standard. The things that caught me off guard was 1) the app critique, because they just let me keep talking and using the app and I wasn't really sure what they were looking for 2) the technical system interview, because the interviewer went super deep, pushing me on latency constraints, how I would design algorithms, and defining technical architectures that I wasn't familiar with.”
“The interview process consisted of several stages: an initial recruiter screening, an online assessment, technical/product interviews, and a final round of behavioral interviews. The recruiter screen focused on my background, product experience, and motivation for applying to Meta. This was followed by an online assessment that tested my product thinking, analytical skills, and ability to structure solutions clearly. In the technical interviews, I was evaluated on product sense, execution, and analytical thinking. I was asked to design product features, define success metrics, and walk through how I would investigate changes in key performance indicators. These interviews emphasized structured thinking, user-centric design, and data-driven decision-making. The final stage included behavioral interviews, where I discussed past experiences, leadership, conflict resolution, and how I align with Meta’s values. There was a strong focus on collaboration, impact, and ownership. Overall, the process was rigorous but well-structured. It largely matched my expectations in terms of the focus on product design, metrics, and behavioral fit. The emphasis on clarity of thought and structured problem-solving was particularly consistent with what I had anticipated. ”
“The process was well managed. The recruiters gave enough feedback and inputs to prep for the interview. Time management is a challenge though. And you have to dig in and get your assumptions validated. ”
“Overall went well. There were some technical questions which were asked but the interviewer assisted me to answer them.”

“The weirdest Anthropic round was the company values interview. It was almost like a therapy session, and honestly if you went to a therapist at some point, you will pass that round much more easily.”
“What was very unusual is they didn’t give me any tooling to draw the system design, so I just sketched it on a piece of paper and talked them through it, then we got into this oddly deep debate about whether hover-over history should count as a recommendation signal.”
