What’s the best strategy to go from Contingent Worker/Contractor to FTE at Facebook (Meta) ???? Currently a Contingent Worker on a 6month contract, I would love to get converted but I am unsure if that is a realistic goal or not. Any advice is welcome!!!

Make sure you start having the discussion with your manager 3 months out from your contract end date about: contract extensions, possibilities your contract role could become a FTE role, open opportunities on the team, and always keep an eye out for open jobs on the careers page that align with what you’re looking for. Internally you’re able to see who the hiring manager/recruiter is associated with each role if you want to reach out directly to discuss further. It will be entirely on you to drive the process of finding a role, don’t expect support from FB on landing a FTE role (sadly!)

Hey everyone - I could do with some advice. Not sure what I am doing wrong, but I am having a hard time getting interview calls.

Any advice you guys could provide would be helpful. Thanks!
