Apple Data Scientist interview questions

manager screen > tech screen > 4 tech sessions at remote "onsite" Manager screen: asked about resume, asked brain teaser, asked old school interview questions. Tech screen: 1 python 3 sql question in 1 hr On-site: intermediate to advanced SQL, hard python seemed like better for software engineer, lots of hypothetical questions about how you handle different scenarios (disagreement with coworker), hypothetical about how to make spam metric with unlimited data ,presentation People were extremely condescending and rude, and it seemed like upper management did not trust first-line management to make any decisions. Very waterfall seemingly and so secretive you can't really get a good idea about the work you will be doing or the team culture. All fanboys, any constructive criticism will be frowned upon.

Quite an interesting experience. The recruiter reached out in Aug and I replied back with time for initial screening. She then disappeared for 2 months, later on responded back saying that my email slipped through the crack. I was still in the market so we talked. Then she passed my information over and one HM picked up my resume. We then had a 45-min tech screening which ran over to 1 hour. HM was passionate, asked 2 coding questions and some behavioral ones. The final interview was a day-long loop, starting from 9 am and running all the way till 5 pm (7 interviews in total). I met with multiple people and stakeholders of the team. Heard back from the recruiter with positive feedback in a week. Despite the initial ghosting, I would say the whole recruiting experience was pleasant and efficient.
