First "Data Science" technical screen @ amazon. what to expect?

Apr 1, 2021 3 Comments

An amazon recruiter reached out and after we chatted, she scheduled me for the technical screen. I understand the LP piece of the interview, but I do not have any idea what to expect for the actual coding/technical piece. This is my first ever DS interview....period.

The HR rep sent me the following as prep:
Data science depth/breadth.
Data manipulation/scripting/coding exercise.

Other than that, I dont know what will happen.
She didn't ask me my preference of coding language (R, python, sql).
What will the coding section look like? should I brush up no python, on sql or both? What will the questions look like?
Do I need to be able to talk through ML concepts and how algorithms work?
should I look at hacker rank and/or leetcode? will the coding questions be leetcode style where you have to write a function?
