Yep. Facebook censored me for linking to an entry about COVID-19 growth on my personal webpage — https://samiam.org/COVID-19 https://samiam.org/COVID-19 for the record — saying the post violated Facebook’s community standards, falsely claiming it was spam (no, I do not have a single ad over on my personal website).
Also, interviewing for a job at Facebook has been one of the worst job interview experiences I have ever had.
- nayuki 5y agoTell me more about what happened at your Facebook interview
- strenholme 5y agoThey asked a lot of really senior-level questions about B-trees. Since I tend to use hashes instead of B-trees for my data structures, I was caught completely flat footed. To interview for Facebook, study B-trees like crazy (no, the recruiters did not warn me about this). Also, after the interview, the recruiters at Facebook I was in contact with completely ghosted me. Very rude.
- jdavis703 5y agoA recruiter explicitly told me to study trees and related algorithms and even offered an FB study guide. However this happened after I told them I didn’t do game show style interviews. YMMV.
