This training program, at its core, is a bunch of videos designed to help you excel in behavioral interviews. Over time, more features were added:
First, throughout my career, I've worked in both technical and non-technical roles.
Second. My experience coaching people for all major job categories has taught me an important lesson: anyone applying for such jobs should be able to qualify if an answer, including its depth, is for them. Some stories will be for mid-level roles while others will be for principal (advisory) roles, while others will be for sales.
While it is true that many of these stories are from IT, I picked examples from a variety of industries and roles.
At Meta, core values aren’t just words on a piece of paper. They’re what guide our actions, communication and decisions every day.
We build and learn faster than anyone else. Acting with urgency, we don’t wait until next week to do something we could do today. We continuously work to speed up our highest priority initiatives by methodically removing barriers that get in the way. It’s about moving fast in one direction together — as a company and as individuals.
Sections in the training: Prioritization & Speed, Ambiguity & Decision making (section 1, section 2), Failure Questions
We push ourselves to ship things that are not just good, but also awe-inspiring. We’ve already built technologies that are useful to billions of people. In our next chapter, we’ll focus more on inspiring them as well, in everything we do.
Sections in the training: Customer Obsession, Deliver Results
Aditional behavior: High Standards (sample questions in the training)
We create a culture where we are straightforward and willing to have hard conversations with each other. At the same time, we are also respectful and when we share feedback, we recognize that many of the world’s leading experts work here.
Sections in the training: Conflict & Influence (section 1, section 2)
We emphasize long-term thinking that encourages us to extend the timeline for the impact we have, rather than optimizing for near-term wins. We take on the challenges that will be the most impactful, even if the full results won’t be seen for years.
Section in the training: Vision & Strategic Thinking
Aditional behavior: Ownership (sample questions in the training)
We build the future of work that we want, with an in-person focus designed to support a strong, valuable experience for our people who work from the office, and a thoughtful and intentional approach to where we invest in remote work. This also means being early adopters of the future products we build to help people feel present together wherever they are.
Section in the training: Learning & Innovation
Aditional behavior: Curiosity (sample questions in the training)
We are stewards of our company and our mission. We have a sense of responsibility for our collective success and to each other as teammates. It’s about taking care of our company and each other.
