      Senior Data Scientist Interview

      20 June 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Berlin
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at BASF (Berlin)

      Interview

      Stelle für Senior Data Scientst mit ua NLP Kenntnissen, der zukünftig verantwortlich sein sollte unstrukturierte Daten in die Cloud zu bringen. Online Bewerbung abgeschickt, von der ich min 6 Wochen nichts gehört habe (leider BASF Standard). Dann ein erstes Telefonat mit anschließender Einladung vor Ort. Dort bin ich einer völlig überforderten "Teamleitung" begegnet, die von Data Science so viel Ahnung hatte wie der Teufel vom Gebet. Nachdem mit (vermutlich ergoogelten) Standardfragen die Skillz des Bewerbers abgeklopft wurden, wurde eine Coding Challange angekündigt; soweit so gut. Das ganze Umfeld war eher 90er Jahre IT. Die Codility Coding Challange, die ich ca 10 Tage später erhalten hatte, hatte mMn rein gar nichts mit der Aufgabe eines Data Scientists zu tun, was die Kenntnisslosigkeit nochmal unterstrichen hat. Diese Computer Science Coding Challange wurde von mir gekippt, womit ich bewussterweise aus dem Bewerbungsprozess raus war.
