Didn't get beyond this, but it was not what I thought it was going to be. Really bummed.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How can you verify that a data set is correct without use of the internet, and given that some data is missing?
Passed screening and case study, but rejected after the cultural fit round, because somehow I'm not a cultural fit, not sure what that means. Through out the process they talked about how much they value feedback but when asked for feedback was ghosted.
