I interviewed at Northslope Technologies (Abu Dhabi, Abu Dhabi) in Apr 2026
Interview
Like others are reporting, the 1st round was similar CSVs with data around flights/airports/tickets/passengers. Questions were almost too basic, pure statistics, overview, light data manipulation (used pandas in a jupyter notebook). The most difficult question involved identifying that a discounted executive class ticket could (in some cases) cost less than an economy ticket... The goal seemed to be to identify a particularity in the dataset with business impact, in this case the inconsistency in ticket categories with impact in branding/reputation - without really needing to isolate other variables that could make the overlap a natural consequence like flight distance etc. I passed to next stage.
A colleague of mine was interviewed a few days before with a slight variant dataset, but the last question was WAY more difficult, requiring a complicated self-join etc etc. He failed.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Extract the min/median/max ticket prices per ticket category (economy, business, executive). Can you identify something unusual about it? What impact could it have on the business? What would you report to your CFO?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Northslope Technologies (New York, NY)
Interview
First round: given a folder of csvs on airports/airplane how to extract info from a question (e.g. what percentage of flights are flying from point a to point b)
Second round: coding interview on string manipulation that is similar to html format e.g.
Third round: design a door access system to get into office buildings… the interviewer was really argumentative in a way that felt like this system design was NOT open ended. The interviewer was looking for a very specific answer.

Interview
technical interviews were fine - they have a WHO interview which is hard to gauge what they are looking for and very subjective and up to the interpretation of the interviewer. I came from a not so privileged background which seemed to attract a lot of quistions in this interview
