La procedura ha richiesto una settimana. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Uber (San Francisco, CA) nel mese di feb 2016
Colloquio
Same experience as last DS interview person. I applied online and a recruiter reached out to me. He/She wasn't helpful or forthcoming with the different DS positions, even when I asked. Was asked to do an offline exercise which was very open ended, one data science-y and one programming. Could do it in any language. The DS questions itself were worded ambiguously, to begin with. Was given a week to finish and I did it and wrote a 7 page article (as they wanted a detailed analysis!) with lots of plots and scripts(just like the last guy!). I sent in my submission and got a reply almost immediately saying we are not interested! The quick reply makes me certain they didn't go through my submission. My opinion is to not waste your time and just use it to practice your DS skills.

My interview started with a stats coding round where I was asked to code for expected value for a problem and the second interview was a case study which was quite easy

Domanda 1
Expected value for a dice problem and a case study about a Uber problem
The process was smooth and well organized. A recruiter initially reached out, followed by a first round consisting of two interviews—one with the team manager and another with a data scientist, both engaging and informative.
Failed at technical screening round. Recruiter told me I will be tested on SQL, but I got tested on Python as well. Did not prepare well for that interview and didn't get moved forward
