Interview
After one of the application they called me for intrtview. The interview was easy. However they indicated it is not really data science what they are doing but more like analysis. It seem they did not know what exactly want to do. After another one month they send email saying the job was filled.At the same time there was new job ad for the same role! Just time wasting will never consider them again.
