Preguntas de entrevista [1]
Pregunta 1
Data is all related to Spotify, 2 Easy Python questions related to basic pandas queries. 2 SQL Easy/Mid questions relating to joins and aggregate functions, and 1 SQL Hard question asking to do a complicated ranking and filtering based on numerous factors.
The interviewers seemed to be in the bad mood, maybe from overwork due to recent layoffs. Nevertheless, the questions were not difficult but the lack of enthusiasm from the panel made the process extremely tedious.
Had an online phone screening with the interviewer but was experiencing a lot of technical difficulties over the phone. She went over the program and then asked a few questions.
The process was described as phone screening then 2 more interviews: technical and then, behavioral. I had not passed the phone screening which I thought went pretty well despite the technical difficulties (Had to move the call onto Teams)
Two interviews, one with engineers about technical stuff, one with manager about general skills. They were friendly, especially the manager. Technical interview included questions about ML and data science, plus some coding challenges.
