I interviewed for a research position at Facebook reality labs, and it was the same process as an interview for an academic job. Give an hour talk about your research, meet with 6 researchers in hour chunks for the rest of the day. The process was similar for my previous industry research job as well. I can't speak to Facebook's other research arms or Google.
- username_123 8y agoGood to know. So you you weren't asked any algorithmic leetcode-style questions or questions testing that you have basic knowledge of your field (e.g. tell me what a random forest is)? Doesn't sound like it. It was more focused on your research?
- electricslpnsld 8y agoThere weren't any whiteboard algorithm questions, no. > questions testing that you have basic knowledge of your field Not directly, but in discussing my research the interviewers drilled down into the contents of my papers, etc.
- username_123 8y agoOkay, thanks.
