. Only sql questions were asked. Overall It felt like they already decided the candidate and just wasted my time. I was told that there will be python but they did not ask python questions. Manager did not say anything good about his team and the work they do.
Good process, clear communication and smooth process. Interview consisted of basic behavioral questions with some and work culture seems to be good. Requires little technical knowledge but familiarity with common platforms like Jira would be good.
I applied online. I had all interviews virtually via Google Chat. The scheduling was smooth using scheduling system.

Started with HM interview, then Recruiter, then VO. HM was nice, and didn't ask many questions, just some background. Recruiter was incredibly unprofessional and didn't even show up to the scheduled meeting. Showed no respect for my time at all. I should have known it was a bad sign. As expected, they ghosted me after the VO.

Come up with a metric for this problem? Why is it a good metric compared to other metrics like Recall or Classification error?
Also had a coding round. Coding round was quite tough. I wasn't well prepared.
