If you want to work for Facebook you are going to have to answer one important question:
“On your very best day at work — the day you come home and think you have the best job in the world — what did you do that day?”
Business Insider recently spoke with Facebook’s Miranda Kalinowski, the company’s global head of recruiting, and she explained that the question helped the tech company identify who the candidate is as a person and whether they genuinely believe in the company’s mission.
“We want to make sure that we approach recruiting in the same way that we approach the design of the product and the services that we deliver to the world,” Kalinowski said. “And that’s with the focus on connection. We want to connect to our candidates in the recruiting or interviewing process pretty deeply.”
Experience and qualifications aside, fitting into Facebook’s cooperate ethos is what is crucial to getting hired and thriving within the business.
“We hire builders,” Kalinowski said. “Regardless of whether we’re hiring an engineer or a finance analyst, they’re going to be the people who like to build things.”
In 2007 just 457 people were employed by Facebook Inc. but with more than one billion people now active on the social media site the company – which now has 13,000 employees –has grown and is always seeking out new talent to fill positions in its 64 offices around the globe.
