Huawei Data Science Interview Questions


This post is about the interview experience for a data scientist position at Huawei IRC (Irish Research Centre). As part of Huawei Europe, IRC mainly focuses on other markets except Asian ones such as China, South Korea, and Japan, and is trying to solve business problems such as Ad optimization on those markets.

Regarding the job post, an agency contacted me regarding the position and I only went through one hiring manager round and stopped. So this post is mainly about the interview questions with the hiring manager (HM). 


The HM round is a 1 HR interview consists of the following structure.

  • 5 min: introduction of each
  • 10 min: presentation about your previous experience
  • 15 min: Q&A regarding the specifications about the job post
  • 25 min: code pairing (Leetcode-like, messed up this)
  • 5 min: ask any questions regarding the role


Some questions mentioned during the interview are:
  • Some questions related to the presentation.
  • What is your contribution/role in a specific project? I think it is mainly trying to figure out your part exactly if there are many team members or authors in a paper.
  • What is the current state-of-the-art for the problem?
  • What are some impressive papers you have read recently regarding the specific area of the job post?
  • Regarding the project of job post related questions, e.g., if you do xxx., how will you approach or provide solutions


Overall, the interview process is well organized, and the interviewer is kind despite of the messing up for the code paring section.
