      Data Science Interview

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at IBM in Mar 2018

      Interview

      After applying online, I received an invitation for a HireVue automated interview session several weeks later. The session itself took several hours, with about 9 slightly technical questions and 2 small programming exercises. I would highly recommend using a real REPL for doing the coding, as the stdout within the online coding platform can't be examined or checked. It's also a bit buggy, as my automated code-checker had problems.

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at IBM

      Interview

      "The company provided a fixed interview slot without any room for flexibility. As soon as I responded to ask if we could reschedule for a different date and time, the system automatically triggered a rejection email. It seems their automated process drops candidates who cannot make the initial slot.
