Technical Coding
It was a two step assessment. First with SQL, next with Python. I was supposed to meet with management after the second assessment, but after waiting half an hour they asked me to come back another day. It takes an hour for me to commute to Oakland by car. Also, they do not validate for expensive parking in downtown Oakland. They said they would reach out shortly but never responded, even after I explained I had received another offer, still no call back, not even saying I was rejected.

- Demonstrate your understanding of basic SQL commands.

First, I did a take-home assignment where I had to do a disparity analysis and create a powerpoint presentation with my findings. I also had to answer some short answer questions about the analysis and about why racial equity is important in public contracting. Then, I had an in-person interview. The entire process took about 2 hours.
