Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you explain a technical concept to a non-technical PM?
Questions on sql - then a hr interview - didn’t go past that. Guess I wasn’t a good fit for the role as didn’t have the experience necessary in terms of years
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Citadel in Jan 2024
Interview
A recruiter from Citadel reached out directly over LinkedIn.
1st stage was the call with the recruiter to talk about experience and a match to the role
2nd stage was a HackerRank test, which I failed. They expect all questions to be completed.
The test had 2 SQL and 1 Python question. The Python question had 3 parts. I've completed all SQL questions and 2 parts from the Python question then ran out of time. So failed the test.
