How are typical data science interviews? Do they delve into classic algorithm problems, optimization and data structure design or do they get into statistics concepts and linear algebra? I am a software engineer who intends to move to a data science role and curious about how to prepare for daa science interviews. From a preparation standpoint I have taken the popular intro to data science course on coursera by Andrew Ng and completed few projects available on kaggle.

I'll give you that undergrad wouldn't work most of the time though. A lack of enough interdisciplinary inuition is bad, and a BS just isn't enough rigor most of the time. No exposure to thankless research can be a problem too 😂
But I haven't seen algorithms or data structures in interviews. Most data science interviews focus on ML algorithms, statistics, business questions, and data manipulation type coding
