Technical Behavioral

Took a few days to shortlist the profile, then called for a direct interview. Asked to attend a F2F interview, but there was no point in attending. There was no panel to take interviews, they called some guy on the phone and he asked some stupid questions, even he didn't know the answers and asked to leave for the day. It's totally a waste of time. They have plenty of freshers/interns they are conducting interviews for experienced people. Such a stupid concept, eye wash.

  • Explain Lasso Regression.
