Me postulé a través de un reclutador. Acudí a una entrevista en Apple (Cupertino, CA) en abr 2019
Entrevista
I went through 3 phone interviews before I was invited for an on-site interview. The first interview was a 30 minute phone call with the hiring manager. He asked about my past experience and basic data science questions. The next call was with a data scientist on the team who asked me to code in python. The third call was with a senior data scientist that asked basic machine learning questions. The on-site interview was a whole day ordeal. I got there at 10:30 am and left at 4:30 pm. There were several 30-minute meetings with data scientists, machine learning engineers, managers, etc.
