1-1 interview with PM who recently joined and was building out team, set up by headhunter. PM was looking for Senior Researcher and was working with selected recruiters it appears.

Interview
First round consists of 3 tests:
1. A programming aptitude test consisting of mostly logic questions
2. A hackerank programming ability test that lasts 48 hours from commencement. There are 3 questions, 1 is filling in missing data for time series can be achieved by basic spline, another is essentially testing if two strings are anagrams of each other, the last is straightforward question with plenty of edge cases to test.
3. A typical personality test where there is not supposed to be a right answer


Second round consists of a personality test that is called Work Behaviours Assessment where current employees have taken this test to serve as a baseline to compare you against.

Got ghosted after this without any response from anyone I messaged from the firm.
Interview Questions
For the hackerrank assessment there are 3 questions:
1. Fill in missing data for time series
2. Given two strings test if the odd letters for the first string and the even letters for the second string can be rearranged to be each other.
3. Given a scenario where a person is trying to price a house based on the total area for a requested area. Based on input data, you have to determine which one are outliers, and from the filtered data determine the most appropriate price.

Interview
Very slow process. Started with campus interview, followed by phone screens, and then onsite. Good experience overall, but could have been faster.
Interview Questions
I don't remember all the questions, but here are a few:

Given a random variable x, and a series of random varies y_1, y_2, ..., y_x, what is the expected sum of the random variables y_1 ... y_x given that x is drawn from a normal distribution with mean 10, and variance 500, and y from uniform on the interval 0, 1. I think there was some speciication that if x is negative, we re draw x, but I'm not a 100% sure.

The second question was a standard Bayes Rule problem, though I can't remember the exacts.
