Some of the FANG shops are still pretty desperate from the great resignation. You might get luckier than you think resuscitating the offers.

yeah I'm pretty sure Facebook would hire just about anyone at this point based on the desperation in the emails I get from them.
Facebook/Meta recently froze nearly all their hiring. Have you received any emails in the last couple of weeks?
Nah, their third and final email was from about a month ago (still recent memory of course, wasn't aware of the freeze).
They are hiring embedded systems engineers.
Are you sure about this? I know someone hired there in that time frame
They are only hiring SwEs that are L7 (maybe L6) and above.
I was being recruited for L6 as a privacy engineer until I took another offer a fortnight ago, fwiw. No freezes there that I’m aware of.
PE is hiring and you could transfer to a SWE position later.
How to go about applying for facebook as a software engineer not based in USA(based in Ghana to be exact)?
Amazon too
I get at least 2-3 Amazon recruiters a week messaging me on LinkedIn. I wish they just provided a checklist where you could check off companies that you would never work for and it would save these recruiters and me so much time and InMail messages.
