Candidatei-me online. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Red Bull (Salzburgo).
Entrevista
Technical interview:
- icebreaker
- very rigid fact based questions
- could do better with competency based questions
- imho the requirements were too broad for the niche use case they were

Had the initial HM interview which was a mix of behavioral and technical (asked to work through a few theoretical problems - more so looking for analytical approach). Moved on to the case study round. Received data and objectives/questions to answer a week before the interview. In my opinion, the project was way too much for a 1 week turn-around. You can evaluate the technical capabilities of a candidate with a smaller/more constrained project. Presented for an hour in front of 3 team members. Silence for two weeks and then form rejection.

Difference in linear vs logistic regression. What do the coefficients mean? What happens if you use a linear fit for logistic data. How would you evaluate the presence of red bull fridge in a store on sales?

Role was located in headquarters. Team lead was looking for data scientists, who could help with the analysis and increase of can sales. Very long process: I received an online video-recording task two weeks after I applied. Just some introduction and motivation stuff. Then, two weeks of silence. Then, technical interview with the manager. Went pretty smoothly but got rejected. When asked for reasons, got a traditional answer that they have no time to give personal feedback. Theoretically, after technical interview I should have received a project and then do a 1.5h presentation. A company has good benefits and helps with relocation though, so I was very upset to be rejected :D
