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."

My experience was with bulk and especially scRNAseq. So we talked mostly single cell sequencing. We also talked regularisation and bayesian stats. Screening interview was very basic with few intro stats questions. Nothing to worry about. Coding interview was very basic (i was shocked when i was told nobody had finished it on time). The old guy was very nice and respectful. Loved the guy
