23 Tough Interview Questions You Can Face in Facebook

Facebook is something that everyone knows about. Its one of the best place to work in. We always wanted to work for big giant companies like Microsoft and others. I always wanted to work in EA (Electronics Arts). But they are still planning to open one office in Pune. Anyways, talking about tech industries, working in Facebook can be so fun, we can just image it.

Facebook's interns make $25,000 more than the average US citizen. And famously, employees on job website Glassdoor voted Facebook as the No. 1 company to work for overall.

Do you wish to work there? But like other IT companies you have to face interview's question. And believe me answering the most tricky question of Facebook is not that easy. I found some of the most tricky question that are asked in Facebook for different positions in the company.
