Data Science Interview Questions

The confirming interview was actually my favorite. First and foremost, it ending up being a second technical interview. But, I think that is because the interviewer was highly technical. There were a few cultural question - such as, what do you do to keep your skills relevant. But again.. insanely easy interview process.

3 main questions: 1. write an algorithm to generate the probability of obtaining a random number based on a prior discrete distribution. Was asked all the relevant probability theory questions where applicable. asked to solve with and without using numpy library functions. 2. pick any ML algo of my choice and explain it at depth - decision trees in my case - how I have deployed it in a project before - covered all the conceptual details. 3. write SQL queries to offer discounts to customers that may not retain a premium subscription service - how would you determine who will/will not be a recurring customer?
