What is facebook's return to work program?

Return to Work is a 16-week immersive program designed for people who have been away from work for two years or longer and are looking to re-enter the workforce full-time. Through training and mentorship, this paid program supports skilled professionals as they prepare to continue their careers. 

Training & Immersion

This program leads you back into the workforce so you can help solve the kinds of complex problems people face every day. You’ll be given tools and guidance to make a real impact, and help bring the world closer together.

Mentorship & Community

In the Return to Work program, you’ll be paired with an experienced manager to help you navigate Facebook as you re-enter this important phase in your career. You’ll also develop a strong peer group, supporting each other as you onboard together.

Preparation & Support

The world moves fast, and technology is constantly growing and changing. Re-entering the workforce after being away is a unique experience, so we take care in setting our program participants up for success.

To learn more about the program and opportunities in various organizations throughout the company, visit our careers page here.
