      Data Engineer Interview

      Mar 2, 2021
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. I interviewed at Lyst (London, England) in Feb 2021

      Interview

      1st stage phone interview with the internal recruiter 2nd stage - take home technical assessment 3rd stage pair programming 4st stage cultural fit interview 5st stage architecture interview. They have a really nice recruiter and some great engineers. However, the architecture part of the interview was a total waste. I had no opportunity to ask any questions and was cornered to do things in a way that they wanted. They are not open to fresh minds and ides so be it lol.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      how would you scrape URLs from a website and process. What technologies would you use..

      Thank you for taking time to leave a review. We are disappointed to hear that you had a negative experience and we’ve brought this to the attention of everyone involved in the process. Our colleagues that take part in these interviews always try to allow candidates to propose their preferred technologies and concepts. Their focus is not on putting forward their own opinions, rather on encouraging candidates to consider the pros and cons of their approaches. We are sorry to know that you could not ask any questions during the interview, we typically allow time at the end of every interview for candidates to ask any questions they may have. As a business we are always open to ideas and suggestions on how we can improve, so we would like to thank you again for leaving your review and helping us learn from this experience. Frances
