Out of nowhere I receive an email from a FB university recruiter looking to interview me for a Data Scientist (Analytics) position. At first I was shocked , but after checking for validity I’m getting excited.

I never thought I’d have an opportunity so big. I really don’t want to blow it since it’d most definitely pay more than my current $55k USD salary and my wife and newborn daughter could really use a bigger cushion.

Any tips in preparing for my interview? It’s scheduled for next Thursday afternoon FYI.

Thanks!

  • If it's gonna be on stats, try reading through "All of statistics" book. It has quick refreshers on key stat topics. Has around 100 pages!?

    Be prepared for a product sense question in the recruiter call. Something like how would you measure the health of Instagram stories? There are guides online to get a framework. After you pass that they will tell you what to study via a packet they send. Make sure to practice the product sense questions heavily

    I can see how much it means to you, all the best. A refresher in statistics is always helpful in DS interviews.
