      Data Scientist Interview

      Jun 16, 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at BNSF Railway in Jun 2025

      Interview

      No interactions with a human, just an automated "codility" assessment link sent shortly after applying. It takes up to two hours, so I found it rude to ask for that much of someone's time without investing any time of their own in talking to them. I quit the assessment as soon as I saw what they were asking. It shows they're unserious, and the culture wouldn't be a good fit. Especially when the salary range for their jobs are so broad as to be useless, they're not worth the time.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      1. Code up the given equation (mutual information] and solution in numpy/pandas, without using any external resources. 2. Do a whole project on the given CSV with pre-processing, EDA, and regression modeling. No external resources, and a time limit.
