Facebook as an organization values the skill over the experience of the candidate. So, you stand a chance of securing the role if you have the relevant skills but no matching experience yet. Janelle Gale VP Human Resources commented in this context to CNBC “Apply if you have the relevant skills even if you don’t have the right experience because we’re looking underneath the surface for what’s really going to matter here and that’s what skills you can bring to the table.”

So, if you think you have the knowledge, but lack experience still gives it a try.

Facebook wants Problem Solvers

Gale also said that during the interview you should be able to demonstrate you are capable of solving problems. The idea is always is to go above and beyond your role and think out of the box to find solutions.

A good way to often to illustrate this is to discuss your previous projects and work, the finding areas of improvement. This indicates that you are open to feedback, have the mindset to learn and progress. Would you hire someone who wants to be stagnant?

Product Knowledge of Facebook
