I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Coolblue
Interview
1. Sent my CV.
2. Had a call with HR where I was asked about past experiences and more importantly, why I wanted to join CoolBlue.
3. Had an interview with an experience Data Scientist talking about my past experiences and focusing on a relevant project of my choice.
4. Did a take home assignment related to time series forecasting.
5. Had 3 calls with people from different teams, one of which was a Data Scientist with whom I had to discuss the take home assignment.
I have applied online for the position and was invited for a simple HR interview. There were some questions given beforehand for which I tried to prepare. However, this was the worst interview experience. The interviewer was very rude, when I didn't give the expected answer to why I applied and hung up after 10 minutes. Turns out I was supposed to read their webpage about how amazing employers they are and base my motivation upon that.
