I have a technical screen scheduled for a L60 (2+ YoE required) Data Scientist role.
I wanted to know what would be the format ? Also, will they ask any software engineering (Data Structure/Algorithms such as Linked Lists, Binary Trees, Red Black Trees, or similar). I'm worried about this, because I don't have any knowledge on this, as most of my work has been regarding sql, python, spark, and creating ml models. Though there's nothing written on JD regarding this, but I wanted to know what others have faced during the interviews.

So, will I be asked Software engineering questions.

Thank you

    Update: I directly asked the hiring manager whether this role requires any Software development experience. And he said, it's good to have some programming experience but Software development experience is not required.

      According to Glassdoor, you might be asked DS/ML questions for phone screen and topics involving DS & Algo. A crash course on it won’t hurt
