Meta Data Science Onstie

I had my onsite for Data Scientist, Product Analytics (IC5) earlier this week. I did really well on the product case questions and the behavioral questions. My SQL interview went well I think, but was hard to get signal from the interviewer. However, I really struggled with the stats half of the execution interview. Thoughts on my chances? #meta #datascience TC: $215k - YOE 6

What kind of stats questions did you get?

Basic probabilities pretty much, the hard part is decoding the question imo.

Nah I’ve done the meta ds loop before twice pre Covid. The time I got rejected it I thought I did well but the stats part was meh. Was a reject.

I had technical interview at Meta few months ago. Got product case question that I have already done few days before interview and 2 easy SQL questions. Did everything good, recruiter confirmed it at interview. I got rejection 1 hour later :) So did onsite interview with excellence is not enough in this market. It is a lottery.

Can you tell me how I can prep for the interview?

Lattice ixDC24 OP Feb 14

Lots of good resources online. Google and you’ll find solid youtube channels. Also would recommend some mock interviews.

Invesco Joe Trump Feb 17

Any specific resources and where did you do mock interviews?

I feel you homie I interviewed at upstart, did well on all parts besides 1 stats question and got the fatty reject. Keep your head up

Hi there, same boat here. Did my onsite early last week but still haven’t heard of a decision yet. I think I kind of messed up in my SQL round :( I heard if you got positive results of three rounds and one negative round, you will be asked to do an additional round- at least better than a rejection, right? Wish us good luck and fingers crossed! 🤞

Lattice ixDC24 OP Feb 16

Good to know thanks for sharing! I have my fingers crossed for both of us! Good luck!

Lattice ixDC24 OP Feb 16

Dang i just realized you said early last week, that sucks they’ve kept you waiting almost 2 weeks. I hate the suspense so I am hopeful I have a response soon.
