Process
HR found my profile on LinkedIn and called me for a discussion.
There was the usual background discussion and very simple SQL questions. Then, they scheduled a phone screen for a SQL and Python interview. They also provided some prep materials.
In the phone screen, it was all coding. I had assumed it would be a combination of SQL and Python, but it wasn't. I did not move past this stage.
