Entrevista
Initial call with the recruiter, then 1 week practical test. The initial call is the classic one with experience and description of the job, requirements, ...
Then a practical test is received, to complete in one week. The questions and the task are not light at all, and this could take quite an important time.
The evaluation of the test is done offline after the delivery. From all the pages of answers that you can give, very small consideration is given to result and ideas, but only the methodology, which if is not the one they are looking for, it is not considered.
In my opinion, the overall experience is quite bad.

I made 2 interviews: screening with a recruiter and a live coding one, with Leetcode like exercises without any AI coding assistant. In the coding one they required a very deep knowledge of Python libraries, some of them not common at all in the day to day of a data scientist

Awful. Red flags for a toxic work culture. I met 3 interviewers, all were exhausted. God knows what they were building. Completely drained and engrossed into their own world, asking theoritical to most difficult questions, kind of to reject you. And even if you pass, there is not a good vibe. They pay a penny and expect you to a coder, Ml researcher and Deep learning Gen AI architect working at OpenAI or Google Deepmind ! Shame on your process. No idea it was coming.
