Data Scientist
My interview experience with Elder Research was really well-organized and felt respectful. It started with an initial screening call, then went into a second round where I had a panel interview. This panel covered both behavioral questions and technical topics. I got to talk with people from the technical team and also with some leadership. Everyone made sure to clearly explain what the role involved and the company's mission.
- Tell me about a time you used machine learning to create something or solve a problem for a client.
Data Scientist
I reached out and connected with the lead recruiter. A few days later, we had a call. It was a pretty chill chat, and she was super friendly and easy to talk to. We stayed on point and it was about 30 minutes.
- Can you give me an overview of your resume?
Data Scientist
A recruiter reached out on LinkedIn, and we had an initial chat about the role, company, and benefits. Then, I had a 1-hour technical interview where I presented some of my previous code, and the team asked questions about it. About a week later, I got an offer. Everyone I met during the process was friendly, professional, and punctual. It was a great experience.
- Can you explain a piece of code you wrote for a past project?
