Correct me if I’m wrong, but Facebook hires people under a generic role (Software Engineer) and then has them choose the team they will join after a “bootcamp” session. So they are not preallocated to a team to fulfill a specific need, and it’s not a direct 1 requisition to 1 person type system. I believe that’s what the above poster was referring to when they mentioned Facebook hiring to be general.
