The interview process first involved a Codility test which was quite manageable for somebody with intermediate programming ability. The next step was a 30 minute meeting with the hiring manager. The technical questions being asked where reasonable however, I felt that I was penalised heavily for not having used the Ocado platform. This was the case, when asked a scenario-based technical question, as the interviewer assumed that you knew the platform well and knew exactly what features were available to you to answer the question. In general, I felt that the hiring manager had a very ineffective approach to trying to understand my data science knowledge and applicable skills for the role.

Entretien
General interview process, hr call, hiring manager call and case study with team members.
The tech and vision are very interesting (so far, only scaled robotic company in the UK). However, the location and salary are not that great. They pay for a scale outside of London which is not ideal.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Interest in the company. General model/statistics questions about data. Model deployment and data drift.

There are a lot of steps in the interview process, but ina cuple of days you know if you have been rejected and they usually gives feedback. There are at least 4-5 steps in the interview. For the task home assignment, you only have the chance to discuss about it if they feel that it is good enough
