Meta intends to let coding applicants employ an AI assistant, according to media. According to the report, the business’s internal message, which the parent company of Facebook allegedly saw, asked current staff members to volunteer for a “mock AI-enabled interview.”
The business is testing this modified structure to better resemble real work scenarios, according to a recent internal post titled “AI-Enabled Interviews—Call for Mock Candidates.” “Meta is developing a new type of coding interview in which candidates have access to an AI assistant. This is more representative of the developer environment that our future employees will work in, and also makes LLM-based cheating less effective,” the post stated.
“We need mock candidates,” the post continued, adding “If you would like to experience a mock AI-enabled interview, please sign up in this sheet. The questions are still in development; data from you will help shape the future of interviewing at Meta.”
Meta confirms it is testing AI-enabled interviews
“We’re obviously focused on using AI to help engineers with their day-to-day work, so it should be no surprise that we’re testing how to provide these tools to applicants during interviews,” a Meta representative told Media in confirmation of the move.
Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Meta, previously stated in a Joe Rogan interview that he anticipates humans overseeing “AI coding agents” that will create codes for the business. “I think this year, probably in 2025, we at Meta as well as the other companies that are basically working on this, are going to have an AI that can effectively be a midlevel engineer that you have at your company that can write code,” Zuckerberg said in January. “Over time we’ll get to a point where a lot of the code in our apps and including the AI that we generate is actually going to be built by AI engineers instead of people engineers … In the future people are going to be so much more creative, and they’re going to be freed up to do kind of crazy things.”
