Hi Fishes
I would like to know about the client interviews (especially in data science or machine learning roles).
Are these interviews tough?
Are these interviews meant to assess technical knowledge? For example, what is binomial distribution, what are different data structures in python, ml algorithms etc.
I would request each of the nagarrians to share their thoughts irrespective of the technologies you are working.
I am thankful to you for taking time and helping me out.

[query] Is it a good idea to say a firm No due to medical reasons to a new night shift project I'm hired in?Accenture
I recently got a night shift project (2 days ago) that requires me to work from 10:30pm till 7:30am
I'm not comfortable with these timings and I'm thinking to ask my manager to put me on Bench (Due to medical reasons that involve mental health)
Is it a nice idea to say a firm No to a new project I'm hardlocked into, due to night shifts?

It’s called, “Reasonable Assurance"

Hey everyone, I got a call from Deloitte recruiting on Wednesday of last week discussing salary requirements and location. They told me that the team really liked me and that they were going to work on an offer. I got a call on Friday saying one group has approved the offer but they are waiting on others. I haven’t heard much since then. Should I be worried? How much longer will I have to wait?

I don’t think this is unusual at all. I have clients who don’t respond when I am asking them questions about deals were in the middle of negotiating. Sometimes it takes three emails to get their attention. A “how’s it going” email is very low priority and for a lot of clients, that would never make it to the top. I wouldn’t take it personally. 
Better approach would be to send an email with substance and usefulness, such an article that you know your client would be interested in, or a new and significant ruling important to issues you know concern them. Ask yourself what value you are adding to your client’s day.
Agreed!
I get these emails, and I am so exhausted and burnt out from living the virtual life, that I don't respond or mean to, but it's not on my priority list. I don't feel like being solicited for business or making small talk. I know you are just doing your job, but you have to give people something they want. For me, if you have an offer like speaking on a panel or writing an article, I would respond.
Thanks - that makes sense
Cont: I usually cycle through clients I haven’t spoken with in a few months around Mid January. Normally it would be lunch or drinks or whatever. I’ve had 3-4 now just straight up not respond to an email. Feels a little like getting rejected by a girl.
It wouldn’t be that hard for a “hey - thanks for reaching out...” response
And these aren’t my bread and butter clients, these are the one offs or the strong leads
I do this as well but I usually get a response, eventually.
Agree with the above. People are busy—maybe try a phone call? I know some folks appreciate the human interaction during these times
If it’s a good client or a long term client, I usually ask if I can visit them to chat about what’s going on. First, it’s a direct ask - they are more likely to reply. Second, the 2-3 hours I eventually spend has always yielded significant work.
Agree with P2, I’ve also realized over time that some people - clients just generally aren’t very responsive to such emails and it doesn’t signal anything. I have a few very satisfied clients who tend not be responsive unless the email is important. I still follow up like this because it shows them they matter to you whether or not you’re in frequent contact
