      Why the Interviewer Asks This Question

      Your interviewer is curious to hear your opinion on the direction the company is heading and the challenges ahead. Not only are they interested in determining how informed you are, but also curious about how aligned your views are with those of Meta, and how you would be able to represent their positions and attitudes when discussing work with those outside of the company.

      What You Need to Know

      When asked about industry topics or the company's direction, always start with the positions and perspectives of the company, similar to the information they offer on their website. So, to prepare for this question or those like it, check out the top stories on Meta's Newsroom, such as, "Living in the Future," where they discuss Meta's two long-term bets on technologies of the future, AI and the metaverse, each of which took major steps forward in 2023. Or, explore their article "What's New Across Our AI Experiences," where they discuss the features they're adding to Meta AI and the new ways generative AI will improve experiences across Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, and WhatsApp.
