      Data Scientist Interview

      17 Dec 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      New York, NY
      Declined offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Zenefits (New York, NY)

      Interview

      I was selected for the automated on-line testing but the position was filled. So I just took the test for educational purposes. I find that answering 6 question and a case study is hard due to time pressure. Unfortunately software that tests shows is not user-friendly for typing. It shows at most 3 words and it is very hard to type a full formula, since it is not visible.

      Interview questions [4]

      Question 1

      1). What are two prime numbers that SUM to 999

      Data Scientist Interview

      3 Jul 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Vancouver, BC
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Zenefits (Vancouver, BC) in Jun 2019

      Interview

      In short, super lengthy, ambiguous and uncoordinated. After three weeks of applying online, I was contacted by HR for a phone screening interview. Followed by a phone interview with a senior data scientist. Then a different HR person took over, and I was given a timed take home test which had a theoretical and coding part. After not hearing back for a couple weeks, I followed up with HR to find out that the company has decided put the position on hold for another month. Meanwhile, I had applied for another role at the company and a third HR person wanted to start the whole process from the beginning.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Questions about the data set and evaluation metrics from my last ML model at a consulting project

      I apologize for your experience and will be sure to share this feedback with our recruiting team. Our HR team does not handle the recruiting process as we have a Talent team that is dedicated to ensuring a quality candidate experience. I believe you spoke with our sourcer, who finds and screens talent, our recruiter who oversees the recruiting process for the role, and then the coordinator who handles the scheduling of interviews. I apologize if that caused any confusion for you and we will take it into consideration as we are constantly improving our process.
