      Data Scientist Interview

      Easy interview

      Application

      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at USAA (San Antonio, TX) in Jan 2018

      Interview

      Initial phone screen with HR, then video conference call with 4 team members (2 managers, potential coworker and peer in a parallel group). The peer interviewers asked some questions around specific data science tools and statistical methods and my experience with them. Manager interviews were broader scope and asked the generic interview type questions (how do you handle conflicts, etc) as well as examples of data science projects I'd worked on, and their impact. Part of each panel call was each person explaining what they do and the team does, their roles and types of projects they work on. The phone conference was supposed to be a video skype conference, but none of the interviewers had set up video. Each person on the panel had 30 min with me, for a total of 2 hours. As of this review, it has been 8 weeks since the interview, and I have not heard through email or phone call that I am no longer under consideration; I had to log into the job tracking system 5 weeks after the interview to find that out. I felt that was a bit discourteous.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      HR phone screen asked for brief overview of experience, general job information (salary range, questions about relocation, and standard HR stuff like citizenship/eligibility). The technical interview asked about what projects I worked on, which tools I used and the impact of the work.
