I had my phone screen interview recently with Meta for E6 SWE position. I got an email from recruiter that I passed the tech screen and wants to schedule a 45min call with me to discuss about the on-site interview loop. I am wondering why 45min for this? Has anyone else seen this before? TC:380k#
My recruiter barreled through details of hypothetical system design and behavioral questions. They just want to help you prepare as much as possible.
Improving their chances of a hire
Level at Amazon?
How many days it took for you get an update from recruiter? I had my interview on lest Wednesday for a different E6 role , still waiting.
They will basically tell you everything to expect in your interview. It’s really helpful.
Prep call that takes awhile
It's prep
This is totally normal. They will walk you through the loop process.
This may be the dumbest post I’ve ever read on Blind and that is saying something. 45 mins to talk to a recruiter for onsite is because they are trying to prepare you for success. The fact that you don’t get that to me says you don’t belong here. Please don’t join the call, don’t leave Amazon, we don’t need anymore ignorant children in our hallways.
I can safely say that this is not close to the dumbest post that I’ve read on Blind. Bashing on someone for asking a question and calling them an ignorant child speaks to your ego and toxicity. OP might not have that much interviewing experience and most people don’t have that much negotiating experience either. That doesn’t mean lack of experience in these areas are correlated to their job excellence. If anything, I encourage people to ask questions and/or do their research if they do not know something, which is what OP here is doing.
So you think negotiating is happening in this 45 minute conversation? Do you think somebody up for a job at Meta should complain about having to spend 45 minutes with a recruiter?

Nothing weird here. It probably won't take 45 min. Just go with it.
