      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Hyperloop One in Jan 2020

      Interview

      It was a pretty long process to just get ghosted in the end. Initially there's an online coding challenge of 1.5 hours, followed by a technical phone screen without coding, then a homework which you're given a week or so to do. Had to hound recruiter many times to keep the process going or to get the simplest question answered. After sending the long HW which I was given a week to do, he completely stopped returning my emails. The phone interviewer who was probably an engineer was very agreeable to talk to. They explained that they have a good work-life balance but pay well below market since they're not profitable recruiter -> Coding online assignment -> technical phonescreen (no coding) ->data science homework -> ghosting

      Interview questions [2]

      Question 1

      coding challenge: -easy level leetcode - medium level SQL query (you can't just wing it) - implementation of a distributed sum algo

      Question 2

      data science HW - 1 week Load the BART demand data for years 2017 and 2018 from http://64.111.127.166/origin-destination/ This data represents hourly demand for BART public transport for each Origin-Destination pair. Using any resources you can find, answer these questions with a jupyter notebook: A) Plot the average daily (from 0 to 24h) rideship pattern, averaging all O-D pairs. Comment the peaks. B) Plot the hourly rideship for 2 years (hour by hour for 2 years) for the 5 highest average rideship O-D pairs. C) Plot the distribution of the trains travelled between disctricts (NOT O-D pairs). We'd like to see yearly rideship or average per hour. The district map can be found here: https://www.bart.gov/about/bod/districts . Additional points for a Chord plot usage. D) BONUS: try to create a demand prediction model. Feel free to google any missing information, plot any interesting / intermediate findings. Use any library you like. When you're finished, send us your jupyter notebook with code and analysis results.
