Bird Interview
- Bird Interview Any insights about interview process for data analyst at bird? Any tips for prep?
- Bird data analyst interview expectations? I work mostly with python, but have a data analyst interview with Bird coming up and it involves an "sql deep dive." What concepts I should brush up on? I've never had a sql interview before. The fact that the interview is an hour long has me worried that it's more complicated than I'm expecting.
- Bird vs Google I'm a senior IC at Google. My current work is impactful, but I'm not in love with it. I recently was contacted by Bird, interviewed, and got an offer for a senior position.

- Does G team matching phase mean offer I made it through the engineering on site at google and was beginning the team matching phase when I was given an ultimatum from other companies. I went with the "bird in the hand" approach and figured I could always interview again with G. Was I about to receive an offer from them?
