I applied online. I interviewed at Google (Mountain View, CA) in Jun 2025
Interview
I had a chance to interview for the data scientist role at google in June 2025. There were 7 rounds of interview after a phone screening round heavily based in machine learning and how quick you can think and they will evaluate you by noticing your problem solving availability.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Statistics and machine learning questions: where you’ll be tested both on general statistical principles and definitions as well as probability and applied machine learning.
It was all good, the interviewer was very nice. Technical questions were a bit challenging but overall it was good. The hiring manager was looking for some hands on experience
Back to back interview.
[1]. Mainly ask ML concepts, e.g., how to develop a classifer for youtube video; they will also ask some statistical concepts
[2] Coding for both python and sql
Applied at PhD level so I had two back to back technical interviews. One all stats concepts and the other talking over a hypothetical experiment design and walking through my thought process.
