Mediocre, and rather weird experience in the second interview (first one was simply a short screening call). They asked me for my pre-uni exam scores (after passing out high school, like SATs for Americans). Note that I had just finished my Masters degree when interviewing, and taken this exam (like SATs in the US) 10-11 years previously and it had very little bearing on the job I was interviewing for. For various reasons, I did not continue the interview process after this second interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Q: What was your competitive entrance exam ranking before joining uni for your undergrad degree?
Q: Tell us about your studies.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Bayer in Feb 2026
Interview
It was a technical. Asked for a brief introduction, asked oral questions regarding programming, data, and ml in general, and two coding questions. The interviewer was very nice and flexible about what you say.
Recruiter screening then interview with a hiring manager. Got ghosted in the end. I followed up with the recruiter to check if I was still in the process, and she said I was. A few months later it turns out she was let go.
Ok, I am good, I am prepared for the meta's interview. I would like to know more about its interview questions, such as coding, SQL, and case studies. I need to practice more about SQL and know how to answer the case study questions
