First, there was HR Shortlisting. Then, HR scheduled a 30-minute Technical Interview. The interviewer was 10 minutes late. He conducted the interview for 45 minutes. I had a meeting and asked him to end the interview, but he insisted on asking a few more questions. It was very unprofessional. When I asked him some counter-questions, he said only he could ask the questions.

The first round was about the projects I'm currently working on. The second interview round was really disappointing because it felt like a one-way conversation where only I was speaking. They asked questions like 'explain Random Forest' and 'explain this, explain that,' but nothing about the underlying concepts of the algorithms. I got the impression the interviewer didn't know those things herself. It wasn't a good way to conduct an interview.

First, there was a phone interview, then a face-to-face interview, and finally an HR round. The main topics covered were data analysis, data clustering, statistics, k-means algorithm, and in-depth stats with formulae and model building. It's important to have clear concepts and in-depth knowledge of statistics and data analysis techniques.

  • Can you tell me more about the projects you've worked on?
