A 'strange' interview. I found Blue Motor Finance through a recruitment agency. Began by asking for my experience and other standard interview questions, which went well. Then the interviewer went on to explain the role, at which point I could tell it was more of an insight analyst role dressed up as a data science role. This was made more clear when the interviewer said that they "don't want to rely on models". At this point, I could tell the role wouldn't be a good fit. Small company with 3 DS "insight" people.
What is the point in advertising a role in DS if it's an insight analyst role? Also, the company's CRM modelling sounds a bit amateurish in comparison to other companies I have worked for. Perhaps why they don't trust models
