      Data Scientist Interview

      May 10, 2017
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Mississauga, ON
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Compass Group (Mississauga, ON) in Feb 2017

      Interview

      I applied through a recruiter firm, S.I Systems, in January 2017, and I passed the first recruiter round, and S.I Systems sent in my application. I got called in for an in person interview 4 weeks later. Then I passed the in person interview, and I was given a technical challenge. After submitting my solution for the technical test, they accepted my answer and wanted me to go in-person to explain my approaches. I presented and explained my solution, and they asked me a lot of business case related questions. Some related to the technical test, some related to running a business. Mostly, they care a lot about driving sales. I was given a very positive feedback by the hiring manager right after the interview, but they completely ignored me after I tried to follow up with the status. I tried to follow up a few times, but they just completely disappeared.

      Interview questions [4]

      Question 1

      If you are the general manager of 2 coffee shops, that are very close to each other (one on each side of a street), what would you do to drive sales for the 2 coffee shops. The coffee shops are franchised (such as Tim Horton, Second Cup), and sell exactly the same products.
