I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Agoda (Bangkok)
Interview
The interview process took extremely long and was badly planned. It consisted of three phone screen with the hiring manager and two other data scientists. It took weeks to move from a step to another. Even though, I solved all the riddles and addressed all the questions during the process, after three stages of interview, I didn't get an offer. I had the impression that they may had already filled the position or cancelled it. Overall, it wasn't a positive experience, the interviewers left somewhat of ambiguous impression of the company and didn't feel like people who was happy to be in the place they were.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Some coding exercise and some general question about my past experience, not much on data science questions. Personally found the interviewers highly opinionated and slightly rude during the interview process.
Tough interview, friendly managers. Questions asked - generate the random numbers without using numpy libraries. Should be able to code in python, focus on python and ML libraries.
Mathematics is the key
Multiple rounds. Starting with an online test of python and sql. Passed and got an email saying that i will proceed to next round. An HR called me to check on my pr status. I say i am local and do not need a visa. 1 day later i got the rejection email, and the job posting is reposted soon after.
Good, Friendly. It went smooth. Interviewer asked everything about CV. It went for about 20-30 minutes. Asked Why would i want to move to thailand.
