Interview
Recruiter screen, followed by live SQL interview, followed by interview asking about technical experience and behavioural questions.
The role was discontinued mid-way through my interviews due to hiring manager change. The process was slow and the recruiter was not very responsive. Did not receive any feedback.

Interview
I had an initial recruiter screening call, which was followed by a detailed technical round with the hiring manager. During this technical interview, the hiring manager asked a variety of questions covering multiple domains, including core Machine Learning concepts, a Python programming challenge, and SQL queries. Additionally, we had an in-depth discussion about my previous projects, where I explained my contributions, problem-solving approach, and the impact of my work. The conversation also touched upon real-world applications of my skills and how they align with the role’s requirements.

Interview
Good and interesting interview questions. But the HR process is very weak.I gave 3 rounds of interview and my third coding round was fantastic. Still, I am not getting any response from HR despite sending them multiple reminders. Poor communication from HR end.
