Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite segnalazione di un dipendente. La procedura ha richiesto 6 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso PlayStation (Londra, Inghilterra) nel mese di giu 2025
Colloquio
15-30 minute chat with recruiter, 30 minute interview with head of department, 1.5 hour interview with senior data scientist and a team lead. Interview with HoD was a mix of behavioural and technical questions. 1.5 hour interview included a couple of notebooks to work on during the interview. There was one more interview (on site) after this, but I was rejected after the 1.5 hour interview for not having enough experience for the role.

Colloquio
I had a call from HR first asking a bit about my experience and motivation. Then the next 30 minute interview was scheduled with a hiring manager. I was told that it will be a CV walk-through. However, none of the questions were about my past experience, it was more about how I would go about with some tasks and projects in Playstation. I was asked theoretical and technical questions and found it quite difficult as I was not expecting it

Was told the interview was a CV review and to get info about the role.
This was false and instead I was asked a lot of very technical questions about specific modelling techniques I’ve not worked with previously.
This threw me completely as I felt unprepared, and wasn’t very professional on PlayStation’s part. Very disappointing behaviour.
