I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
Applied Online. HR contacted within a week to schedule interview with a lead data scientist.
Waited for the interview result for about a month and got hired in another company in this time too.
Recruiters take forever to give a result. Send a yes/no immediately so that we can not have any hope. Remember at the end of the day, many other companies do the similar work and pay more than this does, so better not make candidates wait if you are not interested.
Note: that job opening was still available after 5-6 months since I have applied.
All the best team 😁
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Asked about resume and went deep into some of the statistical models I have worked. It was a good learning experience where the questions asked kinda excited me and introspected my learnings. And at the end had a basic sql group by question.
There are three rounds in total. The process begins with a coding round, followed by the main interview loop, where you will meet the team and discuss technical skills, experience, and fit.
First round is fun, second round, which is also the final round involved 5 sessions, with different focus. For some sessions, not be able to present my story completely, time was tight, and interviewers were rushing.
Thrilled to have accepted the offer — the process was tougher than I expected. The first round was primarily technical, where I tackled an A/B testing design question that required detailed metrics and sample size calculations. Later, I faced a SQL query challenge focused on tracking customer purchases over consecutive months. Funny enough, I had spent quite some time on PracHub digging into similar case studies, which really helped me approach these problems confidently. The final round included behavioral questions, and I felt well-prepared overall.
