and answers is this: what is the hiring process at Facebook? Well, the hiring process at Facebook
usually consists of a phone screening interview that is designed to see whether or not they
want to then invite you along to a face-to-face interview and a tour. My tip is to not underestimate
the importance of the initial Facebook phone screening interview. It's really important
that you prepare fully for that interview, because it is likely you will get asked a
series of challenging interview questions, which I will go through during this tutorial.
OK. Let's get straight into the Facebook interview questions and answers. Undoubtedly, the first
Facebook interview question is going to be: Introduce yourself? So this is your opportunity
to get off on the right footing, and to build confidence in your ability to meet the requirements
of this Facebook role. My tip for answering this correctly is, this interview question
appears to be very easy to answer. However, we have to make sure that we give the Facebook
interviewer what they want to hear. And here's how to do that. Here is my suggested answer
to the first Facebook interview question: Introduce yourself? “I am very hard working,
totally committed to excellence and also someone who wants to continually improve and develop
my skillset to ensure I maintain competence in my role.
Facebook is changing all of the time, and I feel the skills, qualities and values I
possess are a good match for the company. I have studied Facebook’s mission and the
5 core values, and I feel I have a lot to offer in regard to technical expertise and
my commitment to a shared vision or goal. If you hire me within this role here at Facebook,
I will be able to start contributing positively towards the team’s goals quickly, whilst
also bringing a positive, can-do attitude to the organization and those I am working
alongside.” So that is a very strong answer, in my opinion. It's confident in nature, and
if you use that response to the first Facebook interview question, Introduce yourself? Then
it gets you off on the right footing and it allows you to build confidence for the remainder
of your interview. So let's move on to the next Facebook interview question. And that
is going to be: Why do you want to work for Facebook? I can pretty much guarantee this
will come up during your Facebook interview. Now, my tip for answering this highly is,
the majority of candidates will say the same thing in answer to this Facebook interview
question. However, this is your opportunity to stand out and give reasons that are aligned
to Facebooks ability to be progressive as an organization. Facebook is a fantastic organization
to work for. So we want to demonstrate that in our answer. And here's how to do it. “I
want to work for Facebook primarily due to the impact you continue to have on the world
as an organization, the culture you have in place here and also the progressive nature
in which you drive the company forward in an ever-evolving manner. Mark Zuckerburg,
the CEO, is also one of the reasons why I want to work for Facebook. This is due to
his strong community values and the talent he possesses in regard to constantly changing
and evolving the organization. We spend a lot of time at work, and on that basis, I
want to work somewhere I feel I am making a significant impact in my role, somewhere
I can see the results of my work, and also the opportunity to work alongside some really
talented teams and individuals so I can continue to grow and develop.” So there's some really
good reasons why you might want to work for Facebook in there. The fact that they are
a progressive, ever-evolving manner. You are talking about Mark and the fact that he is
an outstanding CEO, and also the fact that you are telling them that we spend a lot of
time at work, and on that basis, you want to feel are making a difference. And also,
you want to learn and develop by working with talented teams and individuals. So you're
not just giving one reason why you want to work for Facebook… You're giving a number
of reasons, which I feel is really important. Now, I still have a number of Facebook interview
questions to run through, including answers. But when you're ready, if you want to check

So let's move on to the next Facebook interview question, and that is: Describe a previous
work situation when you demonstrated one of Facebooks core values? Before we prepare an
answer to this Facebook interview question, we need to understand what the values are
so we can then give a specific situation we've been in at work. Here is my suggested answer.
“Facebook’s five core values are Be Bold, Focus on Impact, Move Fast, Be Open and Build
Social Value. In my previous job, I was particularly good at getting things done really quickly,
and to a high standard. I believe this demonstrates my ability to meet the value of Move Fast.
During one particular project I was working on, we lost two members of staff due to illness,
but we were still expected to finish the project on time. To meet our objective, I started
to increase the speed of my work significantly, and I also ensured I dedicated additional
time outside of normal working hours to make up for the two people we had lost within the
team. The increase in working speed, and the extra hours I dedicated to the project, meant
we were still able to get the project completed on time and to the necessary standards and
specification.” The important thing there, is you are giving a specific situation you've
been in where you have demonstrated one of Facebook core values. I like also, at the
start of that response, you are telling the interviewer what Facebook’s core values
are. That shows that you've done lots of research. The next Facebook interview question I would
like you to prepare for is: Tell me about a situation when you failed? Don't say you've
never failed! Because we all fail. But it's how we RESPOND to the situation that is important.
Show you have failed in the past, but show you responded positively and that you immediately
looked to improve your skills for next time. Here's a great answer to this interview question.
“In my early days of working, I remember I was so keen to impress my boss that I failed
to read a job brief properly. I was working on developing a new ecommerce website for
one of the company’s important clients, and due to my hastiness, I failed to spot
one of the core requirements, which was to include an opt-in form at the foot of some
of the website’s core pages. I soon as I spotted the mistake, I informed my supervisor,
apologized for the mistake I had made, and I worked hard to put things right. I learnt
a lot from that mistake, and my attention to detail skills have never let me down since.”
So that shows that you are honest, you responded positively to it, and you improved your skills
so it never happened again. And that's the important part when responding to that Facebook
interview question. The next Facebook interview question I would like you to prepare for is:
Tell me about your best collaboration experience? This is about working with others to achieve
difficult tasks, something which you will be required to do on a regular basis at Facebook.
So my tip for answering this highly is, to achieve success at Facebook, you must be able
to work as part of a team, so make sure you give a SPECIFIC SITUATION you have been in
previously where you worked with other people to achieve an important goal or project. Here
is my suggested answer. “I can think of quite a few examples where I have collaborated
with others to achieve success. However, one particular experience springs to mind. I was
working as part of a six-person team for my previous employer and we were tasked with
designing a new website for an important client. During the collaboration, we all got our heads
together at the start of the project and shared different ideas for how we could really make
the website serve its intended purpose, and also help the client beat the competition
within its industry. Once we had come up with a definitive plan of action, and a website
design that everyone was in agreement with, we allocated tasks based on individual team
technical strengths before setting to work. Throughout the project, we trusted each other
to do our jobs properly, we supported each other at all times, communicated regularly
and also altered our plans when things needed changing. The reason why the collaboration
we so successful was simply because we all had a clear vision of what we wanted to achieve
and a plan for getting there.” That's a really in-depth answer. It shows that you
can collaborate with other people. And what I particularly like about that response, is
you have given details about the PROCESS you went through when collaborating with others
to achieve your goal. So you've come up with a plan, you discussed what you all wanted
to do in regard to the ideas people were putting forward. You then allocated tasks based on
individual team technical strengths, and you then got to work. And then you trusted and
supported each other. So you are giving details of improving how you work whilst collaborating
with other people, which is really good in that kind of answer. So please don't forget
