This guide is based on general FAANG interview practices and may not reflect specific company procedures.
The Business Development Manager interview process at FAANG-level organizations typically consists of 6-7 rounds spanning 4-6 weeks. The process begins with recruiter screening, moves into role-specific business acumen and analytical assessments, includes multiple behavioral interviews focusing on relationship-building and negotiation skills, and concludes with culture fit evaluation and hiring manager interviews. For junior-level candidates, the emphasis is on demonstrating foundational BD skills, analytical thinking, communication ability, and coachability rather than strategic decision-making or large-scale deal management.
