Got a call with the recruiter, he was super-positive, excited, asked me about my strengths, promised to come back. Then in 2 days I got a rejection. No feedback. Either the recruiter was not aligned with the hiring team, or the hiring team was biased in some ways in which the recruiter wasn't. Either way, kinda weird that I wasn't given any opportunity to prove myself.
Really nice people with a good process. Spoke to manager first, then a technical interview with a data scientist, followed by semi-technical talks with a data analyst and data engineer.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Snowflake (Dublin, CA) in Oct 2023
Interview
The HM reached out by CC'ing the recruiter. I replied with some dates I was available for. The recruiter scheduled the interview after making sure that I can work from Dublin, CA. The rest of the interview would have been two more rounds involving HM and coding. Finally there would have been an onsite.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
A project you worked on, feature selection, over-fitting of the model. What do you do when the features are correlated. What is the main difference between the F1 score and ROC-AUC? How do you decide between different models? What does MLE correspond to in Logistic Regression?
