I applied online. I interviewed at Agoda (Tel Aviv-Yafo) in Dec 2020
Interview
The interviewer was very professional and had a specific type of questions prepared for the interview.
In professional terms - I have no remarks/complaints.
The main issue is: The interviewer was very strict and maintained the "poker face" during the interview.
Which is obviously acceptable.
I believe that every interviewer/candidate should ask himself whether a non-friendly type of conversation is suitable for him.
For me - it is a huge turn-off.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. Describe your previous main project
2. Name few loss functions
3.What is the difference between xgboost and random forests?
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.
