I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Stitch Fix
Interview
1. Get a phone call after 1 week of application submission by one of data scientist, and discuss the resume and projects
2. get a take home assessment to work in 6 hrs on the dataset they are currently working on
3. another phone screen to discuss the take-home assessment, but I can feel he already found another candidate he wanted..
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
background and some details of take-home
some questions are very vague, and really not sure what he want... many questions are open ended for me, bc the take-home is not well-designed from my perspective ... it would be better to ask questions related to statistics or machine learning directly...
they don't use any fancy ml techniques, but emphasis the statistics
quick turnaround, recruiter provided lots of details off the bat and outlined process well. Hiring manager interview, then technical interviews which included coding and stats assessments, and then director interview.
The interview process included a typical phone screen and a virtual technical interview that had live coding. The live coding interview was about 45 minutes long and included 2 questions.

Question 1
Given a pandas dataset, build a basic classification model to predict certain classes.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Stitch Fix in Mar 2024
Interview
There was a HR interview, sql/python screen, HM interview, and final round was a 3 person panel. They sent me an impersonal email saying the role was deprioritized a week after they were supposed to get back to me which they stated they would do over a phone call either way. This was really disappointing and leaves me to wonder if this role was actually real in the first place.
