United KingdomPosted Mar 2025 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I had two interviews total.

One was with engineers and leaned into technical content, and the other was with a manager who focused more on general skills.

The engineer conversation covered ML and data science concepts plus some coding challenges. The manager round felt friendlier and more grounded, and while the overall process was difficult, it didn’t feel adversarial—more like a careful evaluation of both technical depth and how I presented myself.
