Application
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Deep Genomics (Boston, MA) in Mar 2023
Interview
there were 3 interviews. one with someone directly on the team i would have worked on and then someone else who was a director or manager or something and then a coding interview focusing on finding bugs and data analysis.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
coding interview was basically asking you to find mistakes in the code and correct them. there was a data set and you needed to determine why the visualization that was created had no data points.
The interview was 30 minutes, and it was a mix of behavioural and technical questions. The interview started off with my past research experience and it seemed like the interviewer was trying to criticize my work. Overall, it was quite unpleasant and aggressive.
A 30 min coding question was sent after the interview

Question 1
Coding Q: String manipulation for a DNA sequence (the same one as somebody else posted here - return the index of the longest stretch of repeating characters)
Had a 30 minute Google Meet call that was a mix between technical questions and behavioural. Technical questions were mostly about statistics and predictive analytics. Then was sent a 30 minute coding challenge.
