How it went
The candidate was recruited via LinkedIn for a Senior Data Scientist position and completed a comprehensive interview process. This included a recruiter screen, a challenging 48-hour take-home assignment, a technical review of the assignment with a focus on AI-generated code, a hiring manager discussion about past projects, and a final four-interview panel. While the process resembled typical big tech data science interviews, there was an expectation of familiarity with AI tools and debugging AI-generated code. The candidate ultimately did not receive an offer after progressing through all stages.
