      Data Scientist Interview

      1 Jul 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Apr 2022

      Interview

      Low offer: Their final offer is 50-60K lower than what I was told originally. So the business is definitely struggling. Inappropriate conduct with candidates: One of the interviewers spent 10 minutes pressing me on a question about a subtraction function(A,B). It's either A-B or B-A. I didn't remember, so I said we could look at the documentation. After not getting the answer for a couple minutes, this person got frustrated and yelled at me "I'm the documentation. I'm telling you that..." I was shocked that an interviewer could behave this way. Variable skills among interviewers: There are definitely strong technical people, but the data scientists' skills vary greatly. One was struggling to understand how AVG(CASE WHEN ....THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) could calculate the % of certain condition. I was in disbelief.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Meta

      Interview

      Completed 3 rounds of the process, which includes the initial recruiter screen, technical, full loop, and team matching. Couldn't move past the full loop interview. The interview was very engaging, and I actually enjoyed working through the cases. No crazy questions.

      It's all organized. Be prepared to showcase your depth of thinking. Two analytical rounds will make you think on your ability to solve probability and experimentation problems. Have a structure for everything
