I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at DoorDash (New York, NY) in May 2026
Interview
The interview process was first a recruiter screen, then two screening interviews with SQL and a case study, then 2 case studies, one hiring manager interview, and 1 cross-functional partner interview. These interviews are similar to what I would expect for data scientist interviews, but they aren't layups. I expected to be ready after acing the screens + (in my opinion) one of the case studies. But then in one of them they were looking for me to use some concepts I wasn't familiar with, so I bombed it and spent most of the time jumping around to adjacent topics that were similar but evidently not as good. They're pretty quick with the interview process, and I felt they were professional. I just wish it had gone better

The recruiter reached out through LinkedIn. First round was an interview with the hiring manager, then a technical interview including 4 sql questions and one case study in one hour. After passing this step, I moved to the onsite which included 3 case study and a meeting with XFN.
