Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Micron Technology.
Data Scientist
First, there was a recruiter screening where they asked standard questions about my skills and experience. Then, I had a call with the Hiring Manager. They asked in-depth questions about a project I worked on at work, and asked follow-up questions based on my story. Unfortunately, the role was cancelled, so I didn't get any further. Overall, it was a positive process.
- Can you walk me through a project you've completed from beginning to end?
- Tell me more about that project you worked on.
- What is your experience and what skills do you have?
Data Science Engineer
The interview process had 3 rounds total. Round 1 involved two programming questions that were easy to medium in difficulty. Round 2 was a technical interview where they mainly discussed my resume and projects. Round 3 was supposed to be an HR round, but I wasn't selected for it.
- Can you explain the projects on your resume?
- What machine learning concepts do you know?
- Solve two programming problems, ranging from easy to medium difficulty.
Data Scientist
The interview process involved three rounds. The first two interviewers were knowledgeable and respectful. However, the third interviewer was very rude and disrespectful, starting the interview with no introduction and bombarding me with questions he was clearly googling. He interrupted me frequently and seemed to have no real knowledge of the questions he was asking, likely just looking for keywords. He rushed through the interview, finishing in about 15 minutes. It felt like a waste of time, and I would advise against interviewing with this company as they tend to ghost candidates and are frustrating to deal with.
- Can you explain KL Divergence?
- What is Cross-Entropy?
- Describe Dirichlet.
