Though Metaverse still remains a theoretical concept, Facebook considers it the next phase of internet, and has started doing internal recruitment of manpower for roles in augmented reality and virtual reality. At the same time, it is doing recruitment externally from rivals such as Apple and Microsoft. It has rebranded products like Oculus (virtual reality headsets) with Meta name.

Meta has 68000 plus employees. It has listed 3000 open job vacancies on its website, of which 24 per cent are for roles in AR-VR.
