I had a phone screening with a recruiter from Facebook (Meta) but I let it slip that I was in the final stages of interviewing at Amazon, though she continued to ask me about my experience. I thought it was a great convo but I got a standard email a couple days later that they weren’t moving forward with me. The only reason I could think of was what I said about interviewing at Amazon. Is that normal that they would not be interested in me if I’m close to getting an offer elsewhere?

Has nothing to do with the fact you were interviewing with Amazon. You just didn’t make the cut. Most people are interviewing at multiple FANNGs and use this to get better offers between them.

I’m telling you the truth here if Meta wanted you they might even speed up the interview process in light of you having a pending offer. Then, if you did get a bigger offer, they would match or beat it. Why would they give up a great candidate in this market just because they’re interviewing somewhere else? That’s trivial as I said before most people who interview at a FANNG are also interviewing at other FANNGs at the same time everyone knows this.
