Your profile speaks of an inclination towards software skills, why do you want to join an analytics company? Justify your action in two reasons as to why are you sitting here interviewing for the post of a data scientist rather than apply for a software engineer when this CV speaks highly of computer science? What is Finite Element Method? Explain. How relevant is your work in Computer Vision? Breakdown the tagline of Audi and translate accordingly. What is "Technik für Mobel" ? What are your current projects? Answer : Microsoft Xbox Kinect, Gesture Recognition. Counter question : But at Musimga you'd be doing far simpler stuff.? Counter suggestion : Why don't you go for MS?
