I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Compass (New York, NY)
Interview
The interview process consists of 1 or 2 technical phone screens and 4 onsite interviews, 45 minutes each.
One phone screen involved technical, in-depth discussions about my machine learning projects and coding. Another one was a classic open ended, end-to-end data science workflow type discussion about a project they are working on.
The onsite interviews were all technical. Two whiteboard coding rounds (Leetcode Medium), one open ended technical discussion about their projects and one general machine learning/deep learning fundamentals round.
Overall, the interviews were oriented technically and good preparation will be necessary. Very professional and neatly organized by the recruiter as well.
