Meta Content Strategist interview questions

Great overall. The recruiter was lovely and responsive, and did all that was possible to prepare me for the each phase. It was a 4-step process. Here is a bit of info about each step: 1. Phone interview. This was pretty basic, and mostly involved learning more about the position, as well as getting general insight into my background and work experience. The recruiter was really approachable and easy to talk to. It wasn't particularly intimidating. 2. Video chat with another Content Strategist that works for Facebook to go over work samples. After finishing up the phone interview, I sent through samples of past work. You can either link out to your portfolio, or send them in another format. I was told we would discuss the work samples in the video chat, but the interviewer didn't end up asking me many questions about it. We mostly chatted about the role. Then she asked me about my experience, goals, understanding of content strategy, etc. All pretty easy and lots of fun. 3. Content strategy assignment. This part was hard, and the assignment was vague. I had to redesign one of the Facebook products, including proposing new content solutions. The assignment is then scored by other content strategists at Facebook, but unfortunately my score was too low to continue the process. 4. In-person presentation of content strategy assignment. I didn't get to this step so can't give much info about it!

Following a slew of demoralizing applications and interviews at other companies, the recruiting process at Facebook was quick, smooth and enjoyable. A recruiter reached out to me following an internal referral. I submitted an exercise similar to that mentioned by other interviewees. I interviewed via video chat one week later, and I was flown to Menlo Park for a final round the following week, before receiving an offer 5 days later. The process moved very quickly, especially given an overlap with the holidays. Every individual I spoke with was kind, responsive and came across as genuinely interested in me and my past work. I felt respected every step of the way. I especially enjoyed the on-site interview, during which I presented my work to my interviewers before three one-on-one interviews. I had the opportunity to ask some hard questions and get a deeper sense of the cultural dynamics at Facebook. I left feeling incredibly confident about joining the Content Strategy team.
