      Data Science Instructor Interview

      2 Oct 2015
      Anonymous employee
      San Francisco, CA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Galvanize (San Francisco, CA) in Jan 2015

      Interview

      Present a demo lecture that last at least an hour on an assigned topic such as principle component analysis, optimization or any other data science related topics. There is also a python coding challenge on a white board. Nothing too difficult there if you have practiced as a data scientist before. You do have to use Python since the course is taught in the language. Finally, there could be a data science interview focusing on the theory. This interview covers the most common data science topics including frequentist stats and machine learning.
