I have waited one month to be reached by the local recruiter. She rescheduled three times without much further notice for a phone interview for primary screening. I could not continue the process because I do not have one-year full time work experience even though the title of the position is entry-level data scientist.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One in Apr 2016
Interview
First is to talk your resume with recruiter for 20-30 mins,after that will be a hackerrank challenge.After that I have been scheduled a tech interview with data scientist, the process goes really good, I wonder why I didn't pass this round, they are very likely to ask modeling questions that they may currently stuck, if you are not able to give the answers they want to solve their current problem , they will reject you.
