Meta Product Design interview questions

The process: I was invited to present a portfolio of case studies to a product design interviewer at Meta. While the scheduling and setup were smooth, the interview experience itself was very disappointing. Pros: – The recruiter was responsive and kept me informed throughout the scheduling process. – I was able to present a few case studies with shipped work and a functional prototype. Cons: – The interviewer was unnecessarily rude and aggressive throughout the session, interrupting multiple times in a way that seemed intentionally disruptive. – I was cut off during my presentation under the pretense of asking questions, which ultimately prevented me from finishing the final slide on my key reflections and learnings. – There was no constructive feedback after the process, and I was left with the impression that the experience was dismissive rather than collaborative. – The tone and energy did not reflect Meta’s stated values around openness or respect. Advice to Meta: Candidates invest time, effort, and vulnerability into these interviews. Even if the outcome isn’t a fit, the experience should be respectful, especially when interviewing for a role that relies on empathy, communication, and collaboration.

Over the course of three separate days, I went through a 45-minute past work presentation, a 45-minute app critique, a 45-minute whiteboard challenge, and a 30-minute behavioral interview. The interviewers were friendly and supportive, often helping by asking clarifying questions. Possibly because it was a new grad position.
