Update on my Facebook and Booking.com interviews. I had them back to back today.
Even before I start, I accept and admit that I am a hypocrite. I hate Amazon yet order stuff from there. I hate Microsoft yet use their products. I hate Facebook yet went ahead to interview with them.
I fucking hate myself for compromising my ethics, values, and integrity. I had promised myself that even if I work for any major shit company, I'd never go with Facebook. Here I am after many years. Not an excuse, but I am doing it because I see it as an entry point into the UK. That's all.
Community's hate towards me is justified and I'd accept the discrimination from this community because this place is my digital home and you all are my family. Infact first thing I told mom was, dR boys are gonna disown me when they get to know about this.
Anyway, coming to the update part.
I had applied leave at work from last Friday. 4 days of leave earned me 10 days off (including weekends and 2 days of Diwali company holiday).
Last Thursday I got to know that Facebook has scheduled their interview today (Friday). I spent insane amount of time preparing. Approximately 8 hours everyday including weekend. I added nearly 40+ hours preparing for it in last 7 days, because I had to get in. Failure isn't an option now.
I sacrifice my family time, preparing for the interview.
I sacrifice Diwali break, sitting in front of the screen and studying.
I sacrifice my only vacation of 2021, doing mock interviews as late as 11.30 PM.
I sacrifice my free time and enjoyment, stressing over what could happen.
I was prepared like perfect for screening stage.
Interview 1: this guy comes and ask 'what is the best compliment you have got as a PM?' and 'Why do you want to quit the current company?'
He wasn't supposed to ask those as per Facebook's policy and interview stage.
Then he gave me a shit problem to solve and rejected my approach and wanted it his was. I tried to follow him and made sure I was able to convince with the reasoning but he kept pushing me back. He kept putting me down. Did not listen to me or what I had to convey or what was expected as an answer. He had certain output in his mind and wanted me to come up with it as an answer.
For the uninitiated: Facebook gives ton of preparation material and tells upfront the kind of questions they'll ask they just focus on few things. Moreover, in Product interviews, there isn't right or wrong answer.
Anyway, this guy started making funny expressions which put my morale down and I stood my ground with losing my cool. I managed to get all my answers right and the key points the look into a candidate. It went decent. Yet the interviewers attitude was something I did not like.
Interview 2: the lady was really kind and warm. Very accommodating and easy person to deal with. It went amazingly well.
I have two observations I want to share with you all.
1. I hate what Facebook does. Lizardberg is awful human being. But I absolutely liked HOW they are doing things, at least from an interview stand point. They even had mock sessions by their PMs and upfront told how to prepare and how to answer.
2. While it seems to be a 5 star experience, I found them to function mechanically. No small talk, no human connection (ironic to their mission), no conversational flow of the interview (again something that they kept saying a zillion times in all their material). They came, formally introduced themselves, and had a checklist kind of attitude, and left.
I now await for the feedback.
In the next hour, I had Booking.com first round.
Amazing people. Warm friendly experience. Treated me as a human. Heard me. Made me feel part of the conversation rather than someone just being judged.
It went 1000x better than Facebook.
I await the feedback from them as well.
I don't know what's gonna happen but one thing for sure, the kind of expectations Facebook set for their interviews, was nowhere close to the reality. It was awful.
180° was for Booking.com
Guess the saying stands true, expectations always lead to disappointment.
Finally I feel de-stressed and my Diwali vacation starts AFTER Diwali ended. Or rather just a regular weekend.
2021 has been terribly awful year for me. Hope this shitty year ends soon.29 -
TRUSTWORTHY BTC AND ETHEREUM RECOVERY EXPERT= CONSULT SALVAGE ASSET RECOVERY
I saw a post in a Facebook group about a great employment opportunity. The job offer seemed perfectly good salary, benefits, and flexible hours. The agency behind the offer appeared professional, so I decided to apply. Everything seemed normal at first, but then they asked for my personal details and a payment to process the application. They assured me that this was standard procedure, so I trusted them and paid the fee. Not long after, everything went wrong. The job offer disappeared, and I could no longer reach the agency. I tried contacting them through the details they had provided, but no one responded. That's when I realized something was terribly wrong. I later discovered that the fraudsters had used my personal information to apply for credit loans in my name, created an ID.me account to impersonate me, and even filed for tax refunds. The total amount of money they stole from me was a staggering $423,300 USD.I felt completely lost and devastated. I didn’t know where to turn, so I reached out to SALVAGE ASSET RECOVERY. Their team acted quickly and professionally. They tracked down the scammers and worked tirelessly to recover all of the stolen funds. With their help, I was able to get every cent of the money back. The process was not easy, but SALVAGE ASSET RECOVERY kept me informed every step of the way. Their expertise and persistence made all the difference. I honestly don’t know what I would have done without them. Thanks to their hard work, I could finally start to get back on my feet and focus on moving forward. This experience taught me a hard lesson about the importance of being cautious when applying for jobs online. Scammers can easily create convincing profiles and manipulate people into giving up their personal information. Now, I make sure to verify any job opportunity thoroughly before sharing anything online. It’s essential to be extra careful and, if something feels off, trust your instincts. I'm grateful to have recovered my money, but this ordeal has left me with a heightened awareness of how vulnerable we can be in the digital world. Anyone looking for jobs online should always be cautious, and never hesitate to reach out for help if they suspect they’ve been scammed.

It became increasingly clear that something was terribly wrong. It was at this point that I realized I had been scammed. The platform that had seemed so reliable and trustworthy was nothing more than a fraudulent scheme designed to exploit unsuspecting investors. The sense of betrayal and loss was overwhelming.
