      Data Scientist Interview

      Aug 11, 2020
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Guidehouse in Jul 2020

      Interview

      I submitted my application online and a recruiter emailed me to arrange a technical phone screening. The screening was roughly 15 minutes and was a series of basic technical questions (e.g. What are examples of supervised and unsupervised learning?). Next was a series of back-to-back video interviews with two managing consultants and a director. These were a consistent mix of background/personal questions, technical questions, and conversation. Finally, there was an interview with the partner which was also conversational and focused on questions I had about the company, working there, the business model, etc. Overall the interviews themselves were enjoyable and at a respectable level of technical rigor. However, the recruiter and recruiting team were not responsive and I frequently had to call them for details on the next steps. I thought it was odd and unprofessional when the partner complained how slow the recruiting team operated...but he was right. It's been one month since the final interview with the partner and I still haven't received a formal response one way or another regarding my candidacy. Overall, it was a month-long interview process that was the right level of challenging but my interactions with the recruiters were mostly disappointing.

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Guidehouse

      Interview

      The interview questions were average and the interviewers were nice, and after all the interviews they told me that I got the offer. However, the HR sent me another job offer with quite different requirements and much lower pay grade than the original job I applied for. Also, then I noticed the requirement for citizenship for this job, which was not asked during the application. The HR is also really poor at communicating these points and ignored my emails several times. Beware of this company.
