Then was passed on to a technical recruiter. (2) Had a 30 min informal chat with her, during which she focused on how she could make me as successful in the process as possible. (3) Had a 60 min phone interview with a PM focused on Product Sense and Execution. Received word that I would move on to final round. Had another 30 min call with recruiter: non-evaluative during which she gave me feedback from my last interview and walked me through what to expect in final round. (4) Brought onsite for three back to back 45-min interviews with PMs, focused on Leadership (passed experience questions ..."tell me about a time when ..."), Product Sense ("Tell me about a product you use a lot"), and Execution ("How would you solve this question regarding a product you manage").

Interview
Facebook recruiter reached out me and we had initial discussion. He gave me option of telephonic or in-person for first round of interview and I chose in-person. I had 2 interviews 1) product sense and 2) product execution. As part of product sense, there were 2 PMs, one PM was driving the interview and other PM was shadowing. There was only one PM for product execution. After the interviews there was no response from Facebook team. I tried to follow-up with them couple of time but nobody cared to respond. It was very unprofessional and I did not expect it for Facebook recruiting team.
