   I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Trinity Industries (United States) in May 2022

   Interview

   Got a call from HR and done with phone screening. Later she told, there will be a technical round and asked me to give my availability. Done the same and got teams invite link.
   
   2 days later on the day of technical round:
   
   Pretty much like a discussion on my previous academic projects, but explained everything in detail like why I chose F1 score metric along with accuracy of model.
   
   Been asked Basic questions from time series models like :
   Q. What are some time series models?.
   my Ans: ARIMA(auto regression integrated moving average model), SARIMA, exponential smoothing, naive model.
   
   A brief discussion on neural networks like deciding on no.of nodes and length of neural net.
   
   Finally, the quantitative strategist appeared to be very satisfied as he said "very impressive and you have done quite a lot of projects".
   
   Unfortunately I'm not selected as they told despite the hiring manager thought I'm a great candidate he hired a guy with more experience than Me.
   
   I have only 10 months of previous internship experience as data analyst previously.
   
   
   But the infuriating part of recruitment process is the data scientist who interviewed me told they are forming a group of interns.
   
   I'm shocked that despite I convinced them about my skills they did not even consider me for a single position in the team.
