Day 20 meta unfreeze prayer 🙏

[south trout]

hopefully 🙏

[fast dew]

hopefully 🙏

[wraith pine]

hopefully 🙏

[worldly gust]

Hare Krishna, it will. 🙏

[fast scarab]

hopefully 🙏

[wraith pine]

please today...

[south trout]

It’s not happening guys :/

I think by Jan

[wraith pine]

did u hear something new abt it

[south trout]

Kinda one of my friends rec said they will circle back in 4 weeks or sum

[south trout]

A week back so 3 weeks now

[fast dew]

Day's not over yet inhale more hopium 🙏

[worldly gust]

But 3 weeks from now would be the beginning of the holidays. Do you guys think they will respond before the holidays?

Also, at which stage are you guys at?

[fast dew]

likely after holidays

most ppl did their interviews and are waiting on decision i believe

[worldly gust]

I have known people getting rejected after their interviews within 3-4 business days. So, waiting for results sounds like a good news to me. Ofc, only if they open again.

Heard they’re still going ahead with the interviews though.

[fast dew]

Yeah I heard something similar where you can still get rejected but if you're in limbo you probably got weak/strong hire

basically just a waitlist

[worldly gust]

My interviewer mentioned that I did pretty well and then got hit with the pausing email 4 days later🤦🏻‍♂️

Zon was famous for doing this. Did that last year and some of my friends got their offer after 1-2 months, especially after the holidays

But a few didn’t. Especially those who had interviews deep in Spring.

Yeah people aren’t getting rejected for Team Matching, since that goes until they’ve exhausted every HC ig

[fast dew]

is there not only 1 round for meta?

Are you in for swe or pe or de?

[worldly gust]

I had one OA, one work assessment and one interview. I am in SWE PhD Systems and Infrastructure.

[fast dew]

^same but the regular undergrad swe

[grim nest]

has anyone doing pe been rejected after final since the pause

[worldly gust]

I know a few who got rejected after DS, SWE and PE interviews.

[worldly gust]

Did you guys email your recruiters? What did they say?

[grim nest]

dang maybe receiving the pause email rather than straight up rejection is not a bad sign... I hope

[worldly gust]

Meta stocks are rebounding. Hopefully their Q4 earnings turn out well and they start opening HC soon

Daily prayers 🕉️11:11🕉️

[fast dew]

hopefully today 🙏

[rose sorrel]

yea

[rose sorrel]

just got an email saying I’ll get an update in 2 weeks

[fast dew]

wait did you email and they responded

or did they just send an email

[rose sorrel]

didn’t email and ds

[fast dew]

meta offers in 2 weeks 🙏

[worldly gust]

Hare Krishna 🕉️11:11🕉️

[worldly gust]

Joy Maa Manasa 🌺🙏🌺🙏🌺🙏

May God bless us all.

[worldly gust]

Generic one. Why aren’t they all synced? This is weird.

Yeah, I got the same email from my recruiter 3 days after my interview.

[rose sorrel]

i think its role dependent

ds, de, pe, and swe might all be at different stages

[worldly gust]

Could be. What stage are you at? Did you finish your final and waiting for the result? Or, did you pass the final and waiting for TM?

@south trout mentioned earlier that one of their friends heard from their recruiter about hearing back in a similar timeframe as you. They didn’t mention what role their friend was interviewing for?.

[rose sorrel]

no offer deadlines this my only one

[worldly gust]

What stage are you at? Final or TM?

[south trout]

That friend is @rose sorrel lol

[worldly gust]

This is what one of the DS interns got after their first round and pause.

Why are only DS interns getting this? I would assume everyone should be getting it. 😭

[south trout]

I got straight ghosted for DE

Need a different rec fr

[worldly gust]

My recruiter sent me the pausing email only after I emailed her. So, some recs are unresponsive man. I know others going through the same.

Or, may be this is position specific

[rose sorrel]

is he a friend of urs, how did his first round go

[worldly gust]

No. Someone on reddit that I talked to. I think her first round went well.

[rose sorrel]

when did she do her first rd

[worldly gust]

20th November

Got this email yesterday

[worldly gust]

Probably the week after, if before the holidays.

Meta’s stock is going up though.

[wraith pine]

Meta recruiter said he’s gonna keep me updated after rejecting me last week 😭😭 wtf

[rose sorrel]

what did he say exactly?

[fast dew]

Unrejected 🔥🔥🔥

[worldly gust]

My recruiter is in office

I have mailed her. I will let you guys know if she responds. She is bad at responding though.

[worldly gust]

What did your recruiter say?

[wraith pine]

Literally just he’s gonna keep me updated as he hears more on his end 💀

[worldly gust]

Is this for SWE interns or DS? Or, something else?

[fast dew]

New week new chance of offers 🙏

[lavish plank]

anyone rec cg for swe

[worldly gust]

Did he say that they have more head-counts now or is it just a vanilla keeping-the-pipeline-warm email?

Did you get the email too?

So this is the pausing email that everyone has been getting for 3 weeks now

Not a headcount update or anything

[rose sorrel]

is this a good sign? can anyone interpret whats happening lmao

[worldly gust]

What did they say?

Latest news?

[wraith pine]

I don’t think there’s an update for this week lol

[worldly gust]

Man the holidays are gonna suck with anxiety

Hope they have something better the break

[abstract scaffold]

is everyone here after their final round?

i interviewed for PE, didn't get the same pause email as everyone else did and instead got an invite to schedule my final round as planned. final round went by on monday last week so im not sure if i'm affected by the next steps freeze

my interview was actually canceled at first before they rescheduled which i think is a good sign like they haven't reached hc?

[grim nest]

I got the pause email 1 bis day after my pe final

[abstract scaffold]

yea its over for me

genuinely idk whats up with my process

my recruiter got switched the day the pause emails got sent out

if it wasnt for other people i would have no idea they paused rn

[grim nest]

I saw someone in this server who got the pause email only a week after their pe final

I think ur fine and I dont know anyone who got rejected after pe final since the pause

maybe your recruiter is ooo

[worldly gust]

I think most people got the pausing email after their final round.

[worldly gust]

How did they cancel your interview and then reschedule it again? Interesting

[abstract scaffold]

K to L

[keen leaf]

I just did my interview yesterday for the swe intern role in another country 😭

I don’t know if I’m also cooked

[worldly gust]

😭🤦🏻‍♂️ not even any interview feedback

[rose sorrel]

hey @worldly gust could u dm me the contact of the ds person ur talking to on reddit

[worldly gust]

Done.

[worldly gust]

When did you have your final?

That’s true.

Well at-least you still have hope and are under active consideration

My recruiter never says anything good. Her responses are dry af

Yep. We aren’t cooked yet. Probably getting seasoned. Or not, hopefully.

Yeah I have a feeling that’d be the case too. Usually that’s when they get new HC

It could be in Feb after their Q4 gets published

[fast dew]

I can feel an offer coming my way tomorrow 🙏

[fast dew]

I can feel an offer coming my way ~~tomorrow ~~December 4th 🙏

[worldly gust]

Not happening before the break

[rose sorrel]

my recruiter said apporximately 2 weeks last week so maybe next week we'll hear something?

[worldly gust]

May be for DS. We will have to wait and see.

But usually companies decide on budgets and HCs after the break

[worldly gust]

Meta announced 30% funds being cut to Metaverse and 10% across all boards 🤦🏻‍♂️

[keen leaf]

Made their stock go up 😭

[fast dew]

those funds are going to be used to hire interns 🔥

[worldly gust]

Or, pumped into their AI Capex which is announced to be $70B for 2026

[keen leaf]

Quick question does everyone get an onsite survey?

[worldly gust]

I did and know others who have as well.

It doesn’t mean much.

[fast dew]

Damn I didn't even get one 😔

[keen leaf]

Fair enough, thanks!

[keen leaf]

When did you do your interview?

[fast dew]

the 12th

[keen leaf]

It’s probably random

I did my interview like 3 days ago

Not it asking me to rate my recruiter 💀

[fast dew]

Ohh the experience survey?

I got that one

[keen leaf]

That’s what I meant yeah

Don’t wanna rate my recruiter badly, we’ve only communicated like twice

And that was the next steps email

[worldly gust]

Saw this on Reddit. This is for SWE. Are they rejecting people now even after them passing the interviews?

[wraith pine]

This happened to me

[worldly gust]

What the hell. Didn’t your recruiter out to you stating that they are going to keep you updated?

Did they say anything after that?

[wraith pine]

No I think he sent that to me on accident lol

I got rejected by email before that anyway

[worldly gust]

Did you talk to your recruiter about it? Sometimes your applications get moved around. It happens in Amazon.

[worldly gust]

Wait, you got that email as well?

[rose sorrel]

"As part of the company’s annual budget planning for 2026, Mark Zuckerberg asked Meta executives to look for 10% cuts across the board, which has been the standard request during similar recent annual budget cycles. The metaverse group was asked to cut deeper, or up to 30%, because Meta has not seen the level of industry-wide competition of the tech that it once expected."

prob interns getting cut as a result

[keen leaf]

So we’re cooked

[worldly gust]

Then why keep us in a limbo?

[keen leaf]

So does that mean you passed the interview?

Since the stock bounced bank over the past week I’m really praying they increase hc 😭🙏

I heard they already started rejecting some people

Damn you can do both?

Hm could it just be failed interviews? Like if they reject you cos you failed an interview there’s no point waiting for the headcount to increase

Ah fair enough

I think maybe the stock needs to go back up. They paused hiring when it went really low

That was the lowest it was in months

Just happened in November

Now it’s kinda recovering

I hope interns weren’t part of the cuts

I don’t think they give feedback unfortunately

How many recruiters do you have😭 I only have one

Oh fair

I’m not in the US

The UK

London office

TN

Yeah I had my interview on Monday

That’s the thing I’m not sure

I know they seemed to stop giving interviews and OAs out after October

Nope

I had my interview scheduled like 2 days before the announcement thing in the Us

And did it this week

So I’m just kinda waiting and hoping

Cos someone told me that their friend got a NG SWE offer this week

So I’m hoping the pause doesn’t affect me but there’s a rumor it will

Cos I’m like the only one in the pipeline so late

Could be but I haven’t heard back since my interview

Possibly

Idk I’ll email my recruiter on Monday and ask for an update

Hopefully I don’t get swiftly rejected

[south trout]

I got DE consideration and bih didn’t even send me the OA and then the fuckng pause hapaned should I email another rec cause my current one is just ghosting me

[fast dew]

we are cheap and "effective" labour

and free training for potential conversion

but we always get cut anyways

[proud scroll]

Is there any chances Meta open process again next week 😭

I’ve already finished my final and wait for decision

[fast dew]

Frfr I have a feeling too

[vital kettle]

prob January if anything

[proud scroll]

Why is it January, Did recruiter say that to you ?

[vital kettle]

usually when headcount opens back up for companies

[proud scroll]

just curious, why meta runs out of hc so fast, like my friends got his offer at Feb last year

[vital kettle]

they also slowed down hiring last year around this time

but they never announced a formal pause

[ancient ruin]

got de pause email last week

is it over 🥲

[keen leaf]

US?

I heard they started sending the pause emails like a month ago

[proud scroll]

When did you have itv with meta, i thought they sent like a month ago

[ancient ruin]

yeah US

had final last month

will there be any update for de soon like for ds?

[keen leaf]

It seems it’s not just the US in a hiring freeze

We are collectively cooked😭

[proud scroll]

Pray for new week guys

[keen leaf]

Not to me but someone else said they got it

[keen leaf]

I’m praying bro I’m praying 😭🙏

What if we all bought meta stocks

It would make the price go up 😭

[keen leaf]

Someone got an email today that they’re waiting until giving out more interviews

Praying this is a sign that they’re gonna start rehiring soon😭🙏

[proud scroll]

??? I dont understand

[keen leaf]

Someone got sent an email today and the email said they’re waiting until they give out more interviews

I reckon the person did the OA before the freeze

[rose sorrel]

isnt that the generic email that there is a pause so theyll update if they keep interviewing?

or is this different

hopefully its a good sign

[proud scroll]

Same question

[keen leaf]

Not sure tbh possibly

The usual email is that they’re not gonna be scheduling interviews anymore

Idk

I can ask

I’m praying them contacting someone this late is hope

[grim nest]

I got a "checking in" email today from my recruiter saying they're still waiting for hiring updates thanks for waiting etc, this is for PE

[keen leaf]

Manifesting a positive update for everyone soon 🙏

We will not go to Christmas without that damn offer

[proud scroll]

Have you finished your final yet?

[grim nest]

yeah

like 3 weeks ago

[proud scroll]

Yeah, maybe they’ll open it next week, if it were this week, they wouldn’t have sent an email like that.

[worldly gust]

It is unlikely that they will have anything moving before the holidays. Most employees are gonna be going on breaks next week up until New Year, probably

[keen leaf]

I’m holding on to hope that they’ll restart at some point

[keen leaf]

Hi

People are saying meta is taking people off the waitlist?

Praying for everyone here lowkey 🙏

[worldly gust]

What? Where? When? Didn’t hear anything like that yet.

[keen leaf]

Someone said so

[keen steppe]

Yeah how do you know?

[keen leaf]

And another person before that said they got an offer?

[keen leaf]

In summer intern process someone just said so

Hoping it’s true

Trying to dm to confirm

[keen steppe]

oh shoot i just saw

i hope this is true😭✌🏾

[keen leaf]

I’m praying it is😭

[keen steppe]

are you swe intern too

[keen leaf]

Yeah

Different location tho

[keen steppe]

oh snap

like outside us?

[keen leaf]

Yup

The UK

[keen steppe]

ohhh that’s fire

[vital kettle]

I emailed my recruiter yesterday and she said this

Thanks for reaching out, we do not have any updates regarding the internship program. You are correct, we have no set timeline, but I will reach out if there are any additional information!

[proud scroll]

I think we will have update in this week

[keen leaf]

Ok so someone said he got the offer yesterday in the US

Perhaps there’s hope

I have a scheduled email for my recruiter tomorrow

[ancient ruin]

Same, my recruiter said they were hoping for an update by mid dec but its unclear if theyll have an update by then

[rose sorrel]

I think the one who said he got an offer is trolling lmao

[worldly gust]

I think what he meant was he got an offer from some other company and was waiting for Meta update

[worldly gust]

That’s true

Lemme ask my contacts if they got anything

May be by the end of this week or early next we will get an update

[proud scroll]

Where did you see this one

[fast dew]

they are probably trolling

idek know anymore

what I do know is meta offer coming my way tmr 🙏

[proud scroll]

Whay do you mean potential resume

[queen delta]

whos your recruiter?

[fast dew]

oh damn

meta offer unironically tmr

@atomic bolt did your recruiter give any more details besides resume?

oh 😭 nvm offers in jan 🙏

[keen leaf]

Hopefully 🙏

The late January thing does checkout with Q4 earnings drop

We just gotta keep hoping and praying ong

[rose sorrel]

why is one recruiter saying its unclear and another saying big wave jan-feb lmao

[keen leaf]

They’re not in sync😭

That’s crazy💀

[rose sorrel]

brian could be capping

[vital kettle]

ngl he is

I’ve never heard of meta calling some1

[keen leaf]

That’s what I’ve heard of them doing tho

The verbal offer

[vital kettle]

for intern??

[keen leaf]

Then the actual one

[keen leaf]

Yeah

[proud scroll]

I think someone is trolling for that one.

[proud scroll]

Guys, Brian is trolling

He said he had final on 2nd Nov

But that day is Sunday

Ohhh my bad my bad

[proud scroll]

Pray for meta offer tmr guys

[lavish plank]

didnt the freeze start the week after nov 2nd week?

it was like nov 10 iirc

but he said he got the freeze before his final

[proud scroll]

Maybe his 2nd week is from 10th to 14th Nov

[keen leaf]

Ghosted by my recruiter after emailing this morning

[proud scroll]

Heard back yet?

[keen leaf]

Nope😭

[worldly gust]

Person from Reddit got rejected for a Data Engineer position

They interviewed 11/3/2025

They just got rejected today

[proud scroll]

Omggg

So scareeeee

🥲

[worldly gust]

Yeah, so not getting rejected by 2 weeks doesn’t probably mean we passed the final round ig

[keen leaf]

Do you reckon they’re kinda slowly rolling out rejections

Did the person get the rejection via email or was it only on their portal

[proud scroll]

Why does Meta treat us like that?

[keen leaf]

Cos some people said they checked their portal and saw they were rejected a few weeks ago

[keen leaf]

They hate us😭

I’d prefer if they rejected and waitlisted those who passed

That way we atleast know 😭🙏

[proud scroll]

Destroy our christmas

[worldly gust]

Idk. Just asked them. Let’s see what they say

[keen leaf]

Kk thanks

[proud scroll]

That man just finished his first round and waited for his 2nd round

True 🥲

Just curious, Does anybody still wait to have final round (swe intern)

After finished the OA

[keen leaf]

Ong😭

They straight up froze every office😭😭

Fair

I can’t 😭

[rose sorrel]

did they say how good they did

[worldly gust]

Nah haven’t asked yet. Will ask and let you guys know

[proud scroll]

Do yall guy think should i email to recruiter for asking process

Like I havenot emailed for them since my final round

So I’m afraid they think I’m no longer interested in their position and will send me a rejection

[worldly gust]

If you don’t email them, the risk increases.

I think it’s better to email them and keep the pipeline warm

[proud scroll]

Okay okay tysm

[ancient ruin]

was it their screening interview or final?

[worldly gust]

They aren’t responding on Reddit anymore. Probably lost skin in the game.

[keen leaf]

Someone got rejected yesterday in the server the person seemed to be on pause as well

[worldly gust]

Yeah saw that

[keen leaf]

Day 2 of being ghosted by my recruiter lmao😭

[proud scroll]

Me too

I email recruiter yesterday

Not heard back yet

[worldly gust]

May be they are out of office. Or, left for vacation.

[proud scroll]

My recruiter did read my email, but they still haven’t replied.

[worldly gust]

How do you know that? We get read receipts for emails these days?

[proud scroll]

Lol, i have email tracker extension

[worldly gust]

Idk. May be they’re receiving a lot of such emails and aren’t responding due to no updates.

What does your Meta portals say?

[keen leaf]

Nothing

It’s the same 😭

[worldly gust]

Well at least not rejected then

[proud scroll]

They got reject through email or portal

Does anybody know?

[keen leaf]

Yeah

[fast dew]

It's always vacation

[worldly gust]

Wdym?

[proud scroll]

Any update today, guys

[fast dew]

my meta recruiters this year and last year always go on vacation at the worst time

*all my recruiters for all my procs

[worldly gust]

😂😂😂

[fast dew]

It's actually so cursed man I'll have a recruiter ghost me, and I'll just assume they're on vacation

and then they come back a week later saying sorry on vacation

😭

[fast dew]

I have a feeling we getting offers tomorrow 🙏

[worldly gust]

Success is 75% luck and 25% handwork. The people who got things easy never admit to it.

I got one variant question and one leetcode hard for the Meta interview and still got paused. Most that I know got easies and mediums or medium variant at worst. For the same fucking position.

[worldly gust]

It is real my friend. I believe you. Some people have pretty hard luck.

[proud scroll]

What is the different between recruiter and coordinator

Like i have two recruiter and 1 coordinator

[vital kettle]

realistically i dont think anyone will hear back until the new year

every recruiter is saying the same thing (that they are paused and dont know when they wont be)

[fast dew]

coordinator schedules interviews and deals with other logistical stuff

[south trout]

Still haven’t gotten my DE OA man I’m so cooked after consideration email, my rec so buns hasn’t read any of my 10 emails but ik she not dead cause she posts on LinkedIn 😖

[proud scroll]

thought they stopped giving out OA since November 10th

[fast dew]

no last year was normal

[worldly gust]

Last year, got rejected in 4 days. But that was on November 15. I know people who got offers in March too.

Idk if it slowed towards the winter break or not.

[fast dew]

I did my interview the day after you last year

Heard back in like december on my results

[proud scroll]

Someone got offer at first week December

[rose sorrel]

did u see this on discord?

[proud scroll]

Yes

[rose sorrel]

yea we were talking abt that yesterday, i think 2 people claimed to have gotten offers

not sure if its true

[worldly gust]

You got rejected after a month? That’s crazy!

[keen leaf]

I’m starting to see more people say they got rejected on Reddit and discord 😭

[proud scroll]

Where, Can you send it rh

🥲

[keen leaf]

https://www.reddit.com/r/csMajors/s/oud7pTdld9

Like 3 people said they got rejected like yesterday

[proud scroll]

Omggg

Lol

[keen leaf]

Yeah😭

[worldly gust]

One of those from Reddit is the same person that I talked about yesterday. So person aint a new rejection.

Actually, that’s the only person who got rejected on the post. He was the one who was talking to me.

He missed an edge case

[keen leaf]

Oh another person mentioned they got rejected for ux I must have not seen the date difference

[keen leaf]

So they’re still rejecting 💀

[worldly gust]

I had already talked to that ux person before. They got rejected in like 2 days

It was 3 weeks back

[keen leaf]

Damn

[keen leaf]

Fair enough

Did you manage to contact the person in the server that said they got rejected 2 days ago/yesterday

[worldly gust]

They didn’t respond. It was the same Reddit person that you mentioned about in this comment

[keen leaf]

Oh damn fair

They said they were pausing on decisions tho

That’s really weird

[worldly gust]

It’s all up in the air at this point

People who didn’t clear the bar got rejected

Usually pretty quickly

[keen leaf]

I’d honestly prefer if they gave us decisions and waitlisted

[worldly gust]

In an ideal world, that would be the case.

[keen leaf]

They must not like us

[worldly gust]

We are just potential interns. Not a lot of stakes.

[keen leaf]

I’ll be praying my recruiter responds at some point cos they’re straight up ghosting me. The last time I wrote a message and they responded was in October 💀

[worldly gust]

Did you do your OA or final?

[keen leaf]

I did both

[worldly gust]

How did you do?

[keen leaf]

The last time I and my recruiter had a conversation was in October when I asked to extend my OA deadline till early November

I scheduled my interview from early November to December

And did it

[keen leaf]

For the OA- I got 3/4 questions right. The 4th one was pretty much correct but I couldn’t see without my glasses so I made a spelling error and cause everything to fail

But for the interview I think it went pretty well

The first question was quick and I explained everything. I got a hint while doing a walk through and added one edge case

For the second one I immediately knew how to solve it and remembered to add edge cases

My interviewer seemed to never have seen my solution before

I was kinda forcing a stack problem to be solved in O(1) space

So they seemed really intrigued and kept asking questions

Kinda was a deep dive into every bit of my code and the reason for it and effect

Not sure if I’m cooked🙏

[keen leaf]

What about you? How did you do on yours?

[proud scroll]

Why October

My friends had itv at 6th Nov

And got offer at 8th Nov

[keen leaf]

That’s when my recruiter send the OA but I had other interviews and exams at the time so I asked for an extension

And also there were technical issues with my account

It was merging with another account

With my name

So different info was showing up

And I was receiving emails incompletely

[worldly gust]

Same OA performance as you. For the interview, First one was an easy variant. Got the code and explanation done. Dry ran and was to test with edge cases. Did it well.

The second q was a hard. Explained everything and coded just in time with the complexities. But the interviewer said I don’t need to do a dry run since the code was pretty lengthy. But said I did pretty well in the end.

He was a bit weird tho. Had me share my screen. No introduction. Just pasted an example and explained code in words.

[keen leaf]

Bro gave you an hard 😭

wtf

I would have closed the zoom right there and then

[worldly gust]

Yeah I was stoked too.

[keen leaf]

Really😭

[worldly gust]

It was crazy

[keen leaf]

Damn😭

The sharing screen is normal I think

The lack of intro is weird he was prolly just busy

Did you guys talk at the end

[worldly gust]

Yeah I asked him some questions about what he did. But not too much.

He was dry af

[keen leaf]

That’s unfortunate

[keen steppe]

i spoke a someone who got their offer tdy

they interviewed nov 24th

and also received hiring pause

but got their offer tdy

so maybe they’re trickling some offers in idk

[keen leaf]

Today US time or?

Cos today is 9am for me

[keen leaf]

Hopefully

[keen leaf]

Was it for swe or something else?

[keen steppe]

yeah i think for swe intern

i’m not sure what the bar is like

he said he couldn’t solve his second one in time

but he prolly still communicated his thought process well enough to give the interviewer a good signal

[proud scroll]

Did he get the offer ?

[fast dew]

I doubt any offers were given

If they were, that means the pause ended and the recruiters would've likely communicated something along those lines

[vital kettle]

its possible some ppl reneged and they had to fill some spots

if they really unpaused a lot more ppl would’ve heard back

[proud scroll]

My recruiter has ghosted me for three days

[proud scroll]

Anyone got update today?

[rose sorrel]

Not sure but meta stock is down

[proud scroll]

Next week is so close to holiday

I think we would not hear back untill next year

[keen steppe]

yes he did, he got it yesterday

[keen steppe]

yeah prolly

[worldly gust]

I think we will only hear back by end of Jan or early Feb after the Q4 earnings are announced and they have decided on budgets and new HCs.

[fast dew]

I'm feeling meta offers on monday 🙏

[worldly gust]

Anyone waiting for Production Engineering intern after their finals over here?

[keen leaf]

Someone got rejected recently

Like 3 days ago

After finals

It sounded kinda like hc

For the pe intern role

[worldly gust]

What does your meta careers portal say?

Olay so you guys are just one step away from the offer. No team matching needed before the offer.

[worldly gust]

I am a PhD student so we have to match with teams first

Our full loop interview is the team matching

Our technical screen is the final round

[slate bough]

[rose sorrel]

sudo posted something about a meta at ucla event the other day and they got an interview but not sure if that was in the past or recent

[worldly gust]

Monday is too close to the holidays

We won’t hear back anything positive, if any, before mid January

[rose sorrel]

I thought recruiters are still active during holidays

[worldly gust]

As far as I know, everyone is in holiday mode for most part of December and early January

[rose sorrel]

anyone hear anything?

[worldly gust]

Nothing as of now 🤦🏻‍♂️

Probably in January or Feb

[proud scroll]

Did you get this email today?

[fast dew]

Offers on christmas 🙏

[worldly gust]

Yes

[vital kettle]

Wrap it up

[worldly gust]

An hour back

I don’t think anyone will hear anything positive at least before mid January

Just hope and pray that Meta has some great Q4 earnings and they have a lot of HC by late Jan

[vital kettle]

Insane waiting time

[worldly gust]

Bro I know people who waited for 5-6 months for an offer after a freeze in 2024-2025

Including new grads

They were on a freeze as well

So this wait time isn’t too bad ig

We have to hear back before May or June 2026

So Feb or even March aint too bad

Cause they will get their q4 earnings by end of Jan and would probably take a couple of weeks to get new HC

[worldly gust]

These are FT positions btw

[proud scroll]

Guys dont worry

My friend who is currently swe at Meta

He said that Meta is reviewing the total headcount across all teams.

Not run out of hc yet

He said his team just submitted their headcount numbers, so he has no idea about the other teams.

[keen leaf]

Lawd pleaseeeee😭🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[worldly gust]

How does your friend know this? I have SWE friends at Meta as well. Even a PhD swe. They don’t know anything is what they said. The only friend whose team is still taking interns is a research scientist.

I am not doubting you. I am just asking.

I hope your friend is correct and mine is wrong. But I thought SWEs usually have no idea regarding HCs, no?

[rose sorrel]

maybe his friend is a manager?

[proud scroll]

🤫🤫🤫

[worldly gust]

…?

[proud scroll]

Whether we doubt it or not, at least we have hope for good news

[worldly gust]

Yeah sure. But I just wanted to make sure our hopes aren’t leading us to a heartbreak

As engineers, we are expected to cross verify lol

[worldly gust]

He mentioned that his friend is a swe in the msg above

[proud scroll]

Any update today?

[worldly gust]

Same from a friend’s recruiter

No update yet but will let them know

[abstract scaffold]

I just got an offer!!

PE

[worldly gust]

Can you share the email? Without the details which can dox you, obviously.

[proud scroll]

When did you have final?

[keen leaf]

Congratsssss🎉🎉🎉

[abstract scaffold]

Nov 24

[worldly gust]

I think I have never gotten a dopamine hit of hope as big as this one ever before. Thanks.

[abstract scaffold]

We are ALL making it out

[worldly gust]

I am happy for you man. I hope we all can feel what you’re currently feeling sometime in the future.

[worldly gust]

Do you mind sharing how your interview went? Sounds like you were a strong hire looking at the time to offer.

[abstract scaffold]

at the time that I started the process, I only let them know that I was in the process for some companies

didnt give speicifc offer deadlines or anything tho

yes!

[rose sorrel]

did you get an email abt the offer or did ur portal just update

[abstract scaffold]

both

[vital kettle]

swe?

I see

[rose sorrel]

do u guys think they are unfreezing or just someone from PE dropped out so they replaced with the next strongest

[proud scroll]

I think it depends on ur recruiter

[abstract scaffold]

my interview was

funny

[vital kettle]

nobody really knows but def not an official unfreeze

[abstract scaffold]

i showed up 5 minutes late but i had one of the best interviews of my life vomiting out info and going deep into the questions

at one point i went into instruction level and then zoomed out, most of my answers stopped at os/kernel level

after searching this disc they sent out more screenings

i think theyre doing something with pe in particular?

[worldly gust]

I think it has got smth to do with systems and infrastructure. They’re investing heavily into ML infrastructure

[keen leaf]

Do you reckon they’ve set the budget up now hence them rehiring ?

[worldly gust]

Probably in some orgs. I guess it will be more and more as time goes

[keen leaf]

Makes sense

[proud scroll]

Woww

Offer is coming

[worldly gust]

Wth

[grim nest]

got this too

[worldly gust]

Your manifestation worked

[proud scroll]

For PE ?

[worldly gust]

Most likely mate

[keen leaf]

Congratssss

Answer them🙏

Let us know

I think it’s an offer

They have no reason to ask that otherwise

[rose sorrel]

r u also pe

[grim nest]

yeah

[worldly gust]

Last year they asked immigration questions only to those who got offers before the actual offer

[vital kettle]

are u from canada?

[worldly gust]

Were you SWE or PE?

[vital kettle]

if u are then it’s offer

[rose sorrel]

bunch of pe people got offer

[vital kettle]

[worldly gust]

Were you swe or pe?

[vital kettle]

yuh

im swe tho

[proud scroll]

You also got email ?

[vital kettle]

no

[vital kettle]

they definitely wouldn’t of asked for citizenship status if they were gonna reject

[worldly gust]

Citizenship status is very reassuring.

[proud scroll]

Manifest for swe

🥲

[fast dew]

Is it just PE so far?

[vital kettle]

seems like it

lots of pe offers tdy

[fast dew]

swe offers tmr 🙏

[proud scroll]

Did you get the offer yet?

[rose sorrel]

for new grad or internships?

[proud scroll]

Intern

I just checked it

[rose sorrel]

any others that opened for intern?

[proud scroll]

Manifest for swe intern

[rose sorrel]

could u link where u found it i cant find the opening

[proud scroll]

Meta careers

Does anyone interview for two role at the same time

[worldly gust]

SWE, DS and DE aint up yet

[keen leaf]

It looks like they unpaused Pe in the Uk as well

[proud scroll]

Did you hear anything about swe

[keen leaf]

Nope 😭

[keen leaf]

Pe intern is back up on the careers site in the uk

Same with security engineer intern

[worldly gust]

Is this for 2026 swe internship? You already got the offer?

[proud scroll]

Did you get it?

[queen delta]

anyone get anything for swe?

[fast dew]

got a feeling that swe offers are dropping by end of today 🙏

[worldly gust]

Meta was doing PE intern reach outs again as per some server posts before they handed out the PE intern offers

So may be that would be a positive thing

[proud scroll]

Any update for swe guys?

[rose sorrel]

best way to know if any of the other roles will reopen is probably checking the careers site to see if they have reopened

if not then prob not yet

[worldly gust]

It just Network PE and PE intern positions for now

[keen leaf]

Hopefully they start rolling more out 😭🙏

[rose sorrel]

r u pe too?

[keen leaf]

Nope I’m swe

[rose sorrel]

was pe the first one to get affected by the freeze?

[keen leaf]

I assume everyone got affected at the same time on the same day

[proud scroll]

Anyone hear back ?

[keen leaf]

I’m gonna pull a @weak gulch and start manifesting cos if it worked for her it has to work for us 😭🙏

We’re getting offers this week🙏 Trust

[pliant shadow]

any tips for the final

[lavish plank]

swe offers tmr 🙏

anyone hear back from recruiter CG perchance

[worldly gust]

All SWE pipelines move forward tomorrow 🙏11:11🙏

[proud scroll]

Should i email for recruiter tmr ?

[gaunt quarry]

PE?

[proud scroll]

Anyone at UK hear back yet?

[proud scroll]

pray for tmr guys

the last day before holiday

[vital kettle]

[worldly gust]

SWE offer tomorrow! 🙏11:11🙏

[fast dew]

I got rejected 😔

I'm following up on my previous email regarding the status of your 2026 intern application.

We've wrapped up hiring for this role and are no longer moving forward with the recruiting process. We really appreciate you sharing your background and experience with us, and hope to keep in touch about future opportunities.

Feel free to explore our current internship openings on the Meta Careers site and apply to anything else of interest for which you may be eligible.

Thank you again for your interest in Meta!

[vital kettle]

same

[fast dew]

im 2 for 2 bro ts is tragic

[keen leaf]

wtf 😭

Sorry😭

Do we call it wraps😭 that looks like a hc rejection

[vital kettle]

yeah it’s over man

[keen leaf]

Fuck😭

[worldly gust]

Shit.

[fast dew]

yeah it was a hc rejection

ngmi

[dusky bay]

prob yeah, especially if they're rejecting ppl on the hc waitlist 😭

[keen leaf]

Icl from the looks of that email all swe hiding seems closed

[fast dew]

yeah seems like it

[rose sorrel]

is this for all interns?

[fast dew]

I'm swe so swe might be wraps

[vital kettle]

prob

I had a perfect final too

so I think it’s for everyone

ye

prob similar to the initial hc email they sent

not everyone got it same day

[keen leaf]

Did they add that to the email this time tho?

[vital kettle]

na

[rose sorrel]

there’s a chance hc still opens again?

[keen leaf]

So it’s not even valid for next year?

[rose sorrel]

I’m ds but it’s prob cooked too

[dusky bay]

if your ds then you may have a chance

i think swe is just done

[vital kettle]

swe is full

[keen leaf]

You’re ds you’re less likely cooked

[dusky bay]

actually a crazy edge that they aren't sending out mass swe reject 😭

[keen leaf]

Did they even mention that your results are valid for a year?

Could you ask

[vital kettle]

nope but I followed up asking about it

[keen leaf]

Actually straight up evil

[fast dew]

I'm guessing only for swe intern again?

[keen leaf]

Yeah prob

[vital kettle]

good thing it’s my last internship😭

bro I think that mf was trolling

he got us good man

[fast dew]

I can't wait to do new grad recruiting next year now 😍

[dusky bay]

thats crazy

[fast dew]

Gonna go 3 for 3 at meta 🔥

[keen leaf]

Same

[fast dew]

This email came at the worst fucking time too I have an exam in a few hours

Killed all my motivation to study

[keen leaf]

And from the pe offered are just gone

[fast dew]

Prod eng reopened there is hope 🙏

PE offer coming my way tmr

[vital kettle]

are u in proc for both?

[fast dew]

no

my application is still open from like october for PE lol

[rose sorrel]

was swe the first one to open up?

[keen leaf]

Cooked 😭

All hope gone in just one email

[proud scroll]

When did you have itv with meta

[fast dew]

day after hc email

my luck is so ass

[dusky bay]

yea theres like so much confusing shit abt this

namely no mass email + this is somehow before q4

[rose sorrel]

maybe some people got rejection rn and others will get offer later

[dusky bay]

did the reject email come from the recruiter?

if so then yea staggered fs

[rose sorrel]

rip imma assume ds will stop too then

[proud scroll]

Are you at UK or US?

[vital kettle]

yes

[dusky bay]

oh yeah then staggered 😭 shits cooked

[fast dew]

US

[lavish plank]

i got it too 🙁

what even is the point of a valid internvirw for a year

[proud scroll]

Can i know your initial recruiter

[worldly gust]

You got rejected as well?

[lavish plank]

yuh swe

cg recruiter

[worldly gust]

Fucking hell

[worldly gust]

Did you get it today as well?

[lavish plank]

Anyone who hasnt gotten the email from cg here

[worldly gust]

Everyone is fucked then.

[lavish plank]

30 min ago

[keen leaf]

Did they say it was valid for a year?

[lavish plank]

yeah from a previous email

[keen leaf]

Na cos they already decided pe

They might not be doing so well

[keen leaf]

Welp it’s cooked

[vital kettle]

does this mean you don’t have to interview next year if u wanted to do another internship

[lavish plank]

Idts cuz that would be next years recruiting process? not sure

[fast dew]

frfr we totally dodged a bullet (totally not cope)

[lavish plank]

Cant believe they wrapped up hiring so early

[keen leaf]

Me + cliff 😭

[keen leaf]

If you passed this interview yeah

[rose sorrel]

last yr my friend got a swe offer in March 😭

[keen leaf]

They’ve stated this before but not sure if it’s applicable to us

[keen leaf]

Same

Fuck😭

Why meee

[proud scroll]

Why they dont put us in waitlist

[fast dew]

this was the waitlist basically

[flint sable]

to those that got rejected today, what role was it for?

[fast dew]

swe

I wonder what the size of this intern cohort is

[flint sable]

damn it's ggs

[lavish plank]

arent there gonna b ppl reneging between now and summer

[fast dew]

They might not even fill those roles back up

[lavish plank]

maybe we js got rej and theres still swes on the wl

[fast dew]

If they closed hc this early

[keen leaf]

Was it? Cos they didn’t mention if the score carried over till next year

[fast dew]

why tf they get my ass then 😭

fuck my chud life

[keen leaf]

Defo less than half of last year

[fast dew]

I might ask about it

but even then I can only apply for new grad

so might not even apply to me

[flint sable]

damn im from the uk and waiting on swe intern, expecting a rejection soon most likely 💔

[lavish plank]

theres still swes here who havent gotten the email

right

[keen leaf]

Same bro

[flint sable]

interesting to see that they've reopened production engineer and network production engineer for interns

im assuming hc hasn't been reached for those

[worldly gust]

It’s probably just a matter of time now given they ran out of HC

Every email that I am getting is triggering mini heart attack 😭

[flint sable]

lol yh same

[remote totem]

i haven’t

took final nov 17

[flint sable]

it's funny I had my interview scheduled before the hiring freeze start date but I had to reschedule and it just so happened that I rescheduled for the 10th of Nov 💀

[fast dew]

exact same shit happened to me

except the 12th

fr

[wide bramble]

the freeze is done right?

[dusky bay]

emails likely recruiter dependent so rolling out over next few days

[fast dew]

doing it right before christmas is fucked

watch some recruiters be on vacation rn so you won't even hear back until jan

[dusky bay]

oh god bro that would genuinely be horrible

[remote totem]

i finished interview in 20 min bro

fml

[fast dew]

wasted my best interview performance for this

[worldly gust]

Yeah my friend who works at Meta said that it’s a holiday today

Nobody is working today

Idk what that means

[rose sorrel]

wait were rejections automated then

[dusky bay]

how did they send out emails then 😭 just for the love of the game or what

[rose sorrel]

recruiters could be on different schedule than engineers

[worldly gust]

Idk man. That’s what he said. But he said 22 and 23 office is open. But nobody might be working

So getting responses might be difficult

[lavish plank]

so the brian dude was js trolling😭

[keen leaf]

Ts is actually so painful

Did they actually confirm now if your interview results roll over to next year?

[lavish plank]

mine did, but idt it would matter anyway

or they said it was valid for a year

so next intern cycle is next yr anywya

[fast dew]

Wait can I even apply in less than a year then? Normally if you get rejected you have a 1 year cooldown too

But since this was HC rejection does it apply?

[keen leaf]

Did they atleast say you passed

[lavish plank]

idts they jisy said my interview was valud for a year

[worldly gust]

What a messed up process

[dusky bay]

what does ur portal look like?

[lavish plank]

portal still is the same

[fast dew]

portal unchanged for me too

that means rejection was just a dream and offer is coming my way later today 🙏

[worldly gust]

Did anyone else get rejected after that?

[flint sable]

Anyone from the UK been rejected yet?

[keen leaf]

Not yet but it’s already past office hours here

[inner ridge]

Got this for SWE Intern just now:

I'm a lead on our Early in Career recruiting team. I'm following up on behalf of our team in regards to the previous email with the status of your 2026 intern application

We've wrapped up hiring for this role and are no longer moving forward with the recruiting process. We really appreciate you sharing your background and experience with us, and hope to keep in touch about future opportunities.

[flint sable]

this weekend is gonna be fun

[worldly gust]

Is this US? When did you interview?

[inner ridge]

US I didn’t interview was waiting after OA

[rose sorrel]

did your recruiter send this

[worldly gust]

When did you take your OA?

[inner ridge]

Yes

[inner ridge]

Day b4 freeze

[worldly gust]

Just send the mass rejections at this point

I am tired of this limbo.

[keen leaf]

Lmao if they’ve not gone on Christmas break yet

[rose sorrel]

people r saying they got meta offers too though

[worldly gust]

For SWE interns?

[fast dew]

Probably diff role

PE or DE?

[rose sorrel]

they prob stack ranked for swe and then filled up hiring with some people they chose, rest got hced maybe

[keen steppe]

who?

[dusky bay]

what role?

[worldly gust]

Swe

[dusky bay]

like they got it today? along with the wave of rejections?

what even is this company

[worldly gust]

I think so

They also released a Hardware Systems intern role today at their website

Seems like they’re hiring more hardware, systems, production, networking guys.

It could be because of their planned spending in new AI infra next year

[proud scroll]

It’s not true

Cause my recruiter is from AI/ML org

[keen steppe]

what’s not true ?

like the persons trolling abt getting offer?

[proud scroll]

I mean this one

[keen steppe]

ohh gotchu

[worldly gust]

Did they say anything contrary? I am just speculating with the present evidence. I hope I am wrong.

[proud scroll]

Nothing but my behavioral question and my recruiter’s pro5 is from ML/AI org

So i think it is not reason we got reject

[worldly gust]

Well, you haven’t been rejected yet. So may be your org still has HC. They have planned spendings for AI and AI infra for next year

[worldly gust]

So that would make sense

[proud scroll]

No i already got reject

I'm a lead on our Early in Career recruiting team. I'm following up on behalf of our team in regards to the previous email with the status of your 2026 intern application

We've wrapped up hiring for this role and are no longer moving forward with the recruiting process. We really appreciate you sharing your background and experience with us, and hope to keep in touch about future opportunities.

Feel free to explore our current internship openings on the Meta Careers site and apply to anything else of interest for which you may be eligible. Thank you again for your interest in Meta!

Best,

The same

[worldly gust]

Okay. May be it’s stack ranking or random then. Or, they’re only interested in people with systems background mostly.

Not sure.

[worldly gust]

Could be random too. Fuck it atp

[worldly gust]

Bloody hell. Then it’s up in the air.

This was the PE rejection email last week:

Thanks for your interest in Meta and the Production Engineer Intern role. Unfortunately, we will not be moving forward with you in the process at this time for the Production Engineer Intern role. We have met many talented candidates this year and we have had to make some tough choices.

I know this is probably not the news you wanted to hear, and unfortunately, I am not at liberty to give specific feedback due to company policy.

Many people ask what the official rules are for reapplying – it’s typically a solid year for the same role. However, you’re eligible immediately to apply for any other roles at Meta. Check out our Meta Careers Page and let me know if you see another role that you’re interested in! I’d be happy to pass along your resume to the appropriate recruiter.

We truly appreciate your time and interest in Meta.

Please stay in touch and I wish you the best of luck moving forward as you continue in your career!

Looks different from the SWE ones. So may be SWE indeed is at hc? Idk.

But then again, someone got an offer too. So who knows atp!

[fast dew]

That’s the standard rejection email not headcount related

I got exact email last year

Swe might be only one at hc and rejecting atm

[worldly gust]

That’s what I meant. The PE one seemed generic. SWE sounds like is at HC. But one guy got an offer today. So who knows!

We will probably learn more over the next few weeks.

[keen steppe]

i feel like bros trolling tho

[fast dew]

Dropped the news and just dipped

could be

[keen steppe]

ong

[fast dew]

Could also just be him

[keen steppe]

disappeared as soon as ppl asked for more info

[fast dew]

if they did have like a few roles left and just filled them up

[keen steppe]

it’s prolly wraps ngl

shi tragic

[fast dew]

Light work I'm getting new grad next year

I'm in the system still

Third time's the charm they say 😭

[worldly gust]

So, everyone in the US waiting for SWE intern offers from this server is rejected already?

Or, is anybody still left?

Not yet

[dusky bay]

just got reject

[rose sorrel]

for swe?

[dusky bay]

yep

[worldly gust]

Sounds like most people are getting rejected then

Probably will get to know by today or next week

Shit

[dusky bay]

yep

[worldly gust]

When did you get the email?

[worldly gust]

Was it the same HC shit?

[dusky bay]

just now

i assume ppl get the email whenever their recruiter decides to send it out

[worldly gust]

I thought recruiters weren’t working today

[dusky bay]

apparently not

[worldly gust]

Did you email your recruiter for an update?

[dusky bay]

yep will lyk the response

[worldly gust]

Wdym?

[dusky bay]

i emailed them, ill let you know what they respond with

[worldly gust]

I lowkey wanna email my recruiter for an update but scared as hell

[worldly gust]

Oh. I was asking if you emailed your recruiter for an update and then they sent you the rejection email

Sounds like they sent you the rejection email first

[dusky bay]

yea

[keen leaf]

So is the interview even valid for next year

Cos the emails are hc it’s not clear at all

[fast dew]

I think it's valid for other intern roles out rn if they even are valid

I don't think next year intern cycle they will reuse the results from this year

[keen leaf]

This is so crazy

[keen leaf]

This part especially is insane wtf

[fast dew]

I'm just guessing but it wouldn't make sense to keep the scores valid for next year

[keen leaf]

It would tho cos they usually do that

wtf

[worldly gust]

Yeah but most other roles like PE or DE or DS have very different interviews and processes from swe. How do they tally it?

[keen leaf]

Are they really switching it up on us this year

This feels like punishment

[worldly gust]

They literally didn’t give any return offers to interns in 2022. So these companies can do anything. We just numbers

[keen leaf]

Fuck

[fast dew]

wtf they do that?

That's so weird

Ig it might stay valid then if that email was true

Probably won't transfer over for new grad so I'm cooked regardless

[keen leaf]

They used to say so yeah that your results are valid for a year so if you don’t get an offer this year you can take it next year

[fast dew]

Watch them do the same shit this year

Cutting interns is alr a bad sign

[keen leaf]

Fuck my life

I don’t even care about return offers

[fast dew]

this is why I'm going back to amazon, they would never do that to us

[worldly gust]

I don’t think so. May be that’s why they are reducing and assessing the HCs. So that they dont have to a 2022 again, cause that’s bad rep

[fast dew]

Bad rep yeah but it doesn't really matter, people will apply regardless

Tesla did something similar where they rescinded all swe intern offers

but everyone still applies to them

Too much demand not enough supply

They have all the power

[keen leaf]

Literally bad rep for workers makes their share price go up

[fast dew]

yeah every layoff gives them like 5% 😭

[worldly gust]

That’s true though.

[fast dew]

Anything for the shareholders

[keen leaf]

Fr

Fuck this shit

They can’t even say whether or not we can apply next year wtf

[fast dew]

We can

[keen leaf]

Yeah but what about our interview

[fast dew]

I skill issued last year and was able to reapply for this cycle

[keen leaf]

They’re not telling us if we passed or not

[fast dew]

We can assume we passed, cause otherwise you would've just been rejected even with pause

[keen leaf]

Results invalid go through this shit based luck process again

[fast dew]

results carrying over just email and ask them

[keen leaf]

That would be a big assumption cos everyone got the same email

[fast dew]

I thought a bunch of people got rejected during the pause

not related to the HC

I may be wrong tbh

[keen leaf]

We didn’t see that for swe interns

I saw rejects for pe and others

Not swe tho

[fast dew]

Ohh

Yeah ok we won't know then 🫤

fuckass tech man

I should've done dental school

[worldly gust]

Bruh you already have Amazon

[fast dew]

I really wanted to leave home

And the team I'm on is lowkey next on the chopping block

[keen leaf]

This shit was supposed to be fair. Like if you pass you’ve got it and if you fail you don’t

wtf

Fuck my life

[worldly gust]

Life is unfair

Someone got an offer again on

The fuck is happening?

[fast dew]

Maybe stack rank at the very end?

[worldly gust]

Who knows

But you guys had great itv tho

It is very luck based bro

[fast dew]

I'm sure a lot of ppl had similar performance

[worldly gust]

Yea

[fast dew]

Nothing I could've done different so we move on 🤷‍♂️

[worldly gust]

So how do they even stack rank similar performances?

[fast dew]

no clue they could honestly pick blindly and it'll work

[worldly gust]

Holy lottery

[keen leaf]

A troll?

[worldly gust]

Who knows. Brian, the guy today and this person.

Can’t be all trolls, can it?

[keen leaf]

Accounts that haven’t said anything at all before tho?

[worldly gust]

Most people wouldn’t say anything at all

I think swe offers are sparse and rejections more common unlike pe

[worldly gust]

Just got rejected for the PhD SWE intern position:

Thank you for your patience while awaiting an update on the 2026 Software Engineer Intern position at Meta. We truly appreciate your participation in our interview process and recognize the time and effort you invested. At this time, we have completed hiring for this role and will not be moving forward with your application. While we aren’t able to move forward for the internship, we hope to reconnect next fall about full-time PhD opportunities. If you are interested in other Meta internships, you can view openings on the Meta Careers site and apply to any roles that match your interests and qualifications. Thank you again for considering Meta. We wish you all the best in your future endeavors and hope to connect again soon.

Best regards

[fast dew]

fuckkk

[worldly gust]

Good luck to everyone else. I hope you guys make it.

[fast dew]

I asked ab results for diff roles

Great questions! While your interview feedback cannot be transferred to a different role, your applications remain open.

[keen leaf]

did they say anything about transferring interview feedback for next year for the same role?

[fast dew]

That I didn’t ask cause I’ll have to do ng next year

[rose sorrel]

is swe the only one that closed for now

[proud scroll]

I think PE intern also closed

I just searched on meta careers

And it disappears

[vital kettle]

do we just kill ourselves

[fast dew]

It’s over

[worldly gust]

The PE roles are open still

The big wave that Brian’s rec mentioned for Jan/Feb was a cap probably

[worldly gust]

What is this supposed to mean? Can the feedback be reused for the swe intern role next year?

[fast dew]

I didn’t ask

[keen leaf]

could you please ask?
