Short phone interview with HR rep to confirm information and desired salary. 30 minute interview with 2 mangagers. Simple 'tell us about your experience' questions. Near the end of the interview they specified that the position was focused on a few things mentioned in the job description, and other duties mentioned in the jobdescription weren't actually part of this position, which was strange since I have those skills and had been talking about those skills during the whole interview.
Must complete your PLUM Profile, a short one-way video interview, and a coding test through Codility before applying to the role. The video interview and coding test for Data Science, Data Analyst, Data Engineering for Summer 2026 Internship applications are the same.
