Can't speak for BCG Gamma, but for a QB DE role was initially given a fairly straightforward hackerrank assessment with python and sql. As long as you are comfortable with most python mediums it shouldn't be too tough (would also recommend brushing up on requests.) This was ofc for a python DE role though so ymmv.

Counter question - what does the gaming side of analytics look like? I heard comp is generally lower since the there are more people interested in roles there. Is the work more enjoyable than your everyday analytics roles (assuming you enjoy gaming)?

Thx so much!

I passed the technical coding task for bains data science position. It was a standard exploratory data analysis based on data that was sent through csv files. I had to merge two files and conduct supervised machine learning on it. The questions were very open ended like: highlight the 5 most interesting findings in the data. I also had to write a paragraph on how I would proceed with my analysis and model if i was given more time

In that case, it's not like I should use leetcode to practice. Thx!

However our mortgage company’s underwriting team has been painfully slow in confirming if her income qualifies. She’s been at her new job 1 month after a year off.
