      Junior Data Scientist Interview

      4 Jul 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Coolblue in May 2022

      Interview

      The people were very friendly and the process was clear. - 1st round: 30 min phone call with basic motivation questions (why Coolblue etc.), salary expectations (they said somewhere at the lower end of 3100 to 3600), and very basic data science questions - 2nd round: 1h virtual interview, talking about a data science project of yours (20-30 mins) and some behavioural questions (mostly how you work in teams) - 3rd round: 7 day take-home forecasting assignment and a report. They said it would take 1 day of work, but it took at least 4 days for me. It is also vague: there is a large emphasis on making it efficient, but there is no objective measurement for this. Explain everything - 4th round: 30 min virtual interview about assignment and 2x 45 min virtual interview with data scientists perhaps about technical and behavioural questions

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      What do you find interesting about Coolblue? What are your salary expectations?

      Difficult interview

      Application

      The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Coolblue (Rotterdam) in Dec 2024

      Interview

      Goed. Kennismakingsgesprek met twee senior teamgenoten. Vervolgens een week tijd om een time series forecasting case study te maken over sales van 2 fictieve producten. Ten slotte een review met dezelfde teamgenoten inclusief verdiepingsvragen. Prettige kennismakingen, maar voor een startersfunctie mijns inziens relatief hoge kwalificatievereisten (in-depth data science kennis en ervaring met bouwen en onderhouden van oplossingen in productie).

      Interview questions [3]

      Question 1

      Welke stappen en keuzes maak je in het trainen en evalueren van je time-series model?
      Answer question

      Question 2

      Kun je uitleggen hoe een Random Forest (of model naar keuze) werkt? Welke loss function gebruikt het?
      Answer question

      Question 3

      Kun je uitleggen wat met overfitting wordt bedoeld en hoe je het signaleert?

      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Coolblue

      Interview

      First step was to call with the HR person. Then had an interview with the team lead and a data scientist which I talked about one of my projects. After that they gave a case to do at home and send the answers. I failed at that step so I don't know what comes next.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Describe the steps that you followed in a project that you have done.
