Process
I went to the career fair at our university and secured an interview. The process included two rounds.
The interviewers were interested in my data science background and were very friendly. While they asked a lot about my experience, they also shared a lot about Yahoo with me.
Each interviewer asked one technical question. One was an open-ended question, such as what assumptions I would add to develop a faster algorithm and how.
Questions
What assumption will I add in order to develop a faster algorithm, and how?
