J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 1 semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez Databricks (San Francisco, CA) en mai 2015
Entretien
solved 2 pre screening questions online when applying on their website. Then was reached by the header of data science and machine learning in data bricks. The header initially called and learned my preference, then followed by a tech phone interview asked similar question as the prescreening ones. The SQL questions include join, having,group by. The coding question's choice of language is up to you, python is preferred. But R is also fine. If you could know java or c, thats better.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
SQL;coding questions. Questions are not too hard. But I think they want you to be able to solve without much thinking, with speed.
The interview questions includes from ML concepts to python design, which is harder than I expected. But can use SQL as well. You can choose what you want to use.
3 rounds, 1 case interview, 1 fundamentals and 1 SQL interview. The case interview was extremely technical and the fundamentals interview didn't cover my resume at all. Overall it was quite difficult, and the fundamentals interview prep sheet was not helpful at all
