Scientist Interview Questions
"The questions you are asked in an interview for a position as a scientist will depend greatly on field of science you intend to work in. Generally, interviewers will be interested in your formal education, field of study and specialization, work, internship, and research experience, scientific writing skills, and interest in the subject matter. Expect to be asked technical questions that pertain to the knowledge needed to perform the duties of the job. While there are some positions open to scientists who possess associates' or bachelors' degrees, most jobs will require you to have at least a masters' degree with the majority requiring you to have a doctorate."

How do you like data
Why do I think I would have a smooth transition into industry?
1: How would you add additional user/item features in a factorization matrix for recommenders?
3: You have website/place that gets 10% of conversion. Given a classifier model that predicts if an user will convert or not, with a true positive rate of 1 and true negative of 0.5. Say which is the probability of getting true positive values.
The first technical round is a skills assessment round. You are given a very difficult word problem (about a paragraph) and you are to write code an algorithm that compiles. These are like google type questions. I think they think they are Google or Microsoft and forgetting that they are just a startup. If I was such a rock star coder I would be applying for Google, not here. lol
