Coding Technical

It was super long, like 5 interviews in total. They had me do a live coding session and then an assessment. In the end, they said they liked my profile but thought I was a better fit for ML, which they don't have an opening for. Total waste of my time.

Technical Coding

after the recruiter call, there was a sql interview. the interviewer talked for 10 minutes about the tables, leaving less than 20 minutes for 3 questions. the interviewer mentioned they aren't strict about syntax but do notice small things and want to see the full picture. they only want one correct solution and don't entertain other approaches. they asked a question at the end. the interviewer gave a weak answer that seemed too basic for their experience, like something from an intro college project. the experience was disappointing.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • Questions about using left join with sum(case when) in SQL.
  • Questions about using window functions in SQL.
