Facebook (Meta) Hey there! I’m interested in applying for the Rotational Product Manager role at Facebook/Meta. I’m currently working as both a Senior CSM and a Product Specialist at a Health-Tech company. Would anyone be willing to offer a referral (I feel weird making this post, but, he we are haha). Happy to chat if needed. Appreciate your help :)

Good call on avoiding target date funds - no need to have any bonds with retirement so far away. A russell 1000 index fund is a good choice. I would select that along with a blend of small/mid/large/mega cap and total market funds. In my experience, Vanguard funds have the lowest expense ratio.
Depends how much you want your portfolio to be weighted with small/mid caps. Total market indexes usually only have ~15% off small/mid caps combined.
Yes, ignore bonds at your age in this environment. If rates you up, bond prices will go down and that’s the last thing you want as a young growth investor.
Russell 1000 is good. Russell 2000 or 3000 give you more small cap exposure.
If you are trying to identify a single core position I like 1,000 as its more breadth than SP500 without being aggressively heavy on the small caps
You’ll make a larger difference in your investment behavior than your investment choice (allocating high percentage). Also target dates only have a composition of approx. 6% bonds anyhow at age 25. So the conservative growth portion is really not doing much harm at all.
