I applied in-person. I interviewed at Dell Technologies (Austin, TX) in Apr 2018
Interview
just a bunch of behavioral question with basic questions on data science and database concepts
The final round was with 3 teams first one was all about my experience and behavioral questions second round was about my programming skills and third round was about how would I contribute to the company
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
what is dimensionality reduction?
what is indexing in database etc
First step is to have a recruiter call in which they will assess your interest in the job and will give an idea of daily work. They will also give you an idea of next interview processes. Then the detailed technical interview may cover coding as well as oral session.
3 stages.
Deep dive on 2–3 key projects
Discussion of business problem → approach → trade-offs → impact
Light technical probing (not LeetCode style)
Stakeholder management and ownership
Structured thinking under ambiguity
Ability to connect data → decision → action
Depth, not breadth of tools
