Entretien
Applied online, after more than 2 month later, had a chance to speak with mangers/team member. Interview was a joke. I was I will speak with one person than it change to another person then at the interview time both came. It was to understand one person. They did not ask me anything remotely related to job description. Got the impression that they already rejected me and I was wasting my time and energy trying to learn about the role.

A phone call with the recruiter that was fairly straightforward and a zoom call with the hiring manager. I did not get more interviews. They decided to go with an internal candidate.

Entretien
A few weeks of different interviews (take home quiz, technical phone screen, on-site). You meet with different DS team members. The technical questions are not easy and the quiz is timed (but you can do it at home).

J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Vertex Pharmaceuticals (Boston, MA) en sept. 2019
Entretien
Interviewed for data scientist in a company wide data science team. A couple of standard phone screens. Then, a take-home science project they lifted from a public data science competition. This assignment was very intensive, they give you a week, and and it takes 20+ hours to complete. Recommend taking time off work to work on this full time for a few days. Then, they bring you in for an interview where the team asks you questions (some intelligent, some not so much).
On the hiring team, there were a few data scientists who were pleasant enough. Then there are a couple of executive members of the team, who ask you basic behavioral questions and don't seem very invested in the process. The hiring manager is quite rude and unprofessional.

Question 1
Some technical questions that test your basic statistics abilities. A lot of questions describing your past experiences. I feel like most of the decision is made during the presentation.
