Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Sigmoid.
Data Engineer
So there were three rounds in total. Two were technical and one was with HR. The technical interviews were tough, like medium to hard leetcode. The HR one was pretty standard. Two of the interviews were online, and the last one was in person.
- A question about Binary Trees was asked.
- They asked a question about Data Structures.
- There were some Database related questions.
Data Engineer
There were 3 interview rounds plus a written test. Round 1 focused on resume and project questions. Round 2 covered technical topics like Python, Power BI, and SQL. Round 3 was with the manager, including some behavioral and technical questions, though the manager seemed disengaged, joining late and leaving early, cutting the interview short. Despite the time invested in the interviews and written exam, there was no follow-up regarding the results, which was frustrating as similar experiences were reported by others in my network. This lack of professionalism and communication was disappointing.
- Can you explain what a pivot is in SQL and demonstrate its usage?
Data Engineering Intern
So, the interview starts with 2 rounds focused on Data Structures and Algorithms. The questions will be from beginner to medium difficulty. You need to explain your approach for each question to the interviewer. For every approach you explain, you'll be asked about time and space complexity.
- There was a question about sliding windows.
