Overall extremely negative experience. The recruiter told me I didn’t need to prepare anything specific for the call, and began the call, late, with detailed technical questions that I don’t think they understood. At the end of the interview they communicated I’d move on to the next round. I provided my availability, as requested, and I was ghosted.
This is a parade of red flags. Look for other opportunities. Skip this company.
The interview was through a phone call with several basic probability and statistical questions. The questions were not hard at all, but you have to be very familiar with that basic stuff.
