What Faculty's hiring process looks like

Faculty AI (UK) runs a structured, selective process: recruiter screen, a Codility take-home coding test, a 30-min data-scientist interview (overfitting, hyperparameter tuning, XGBoost, explaining biased models), then a team technical round and a director interview; about 3 weeks. Candidates rate it ~38-48% positive (difficulty ~3/5). Recurring gripe: real take-home effort with little or no feedback and occasional ghosting. Reported average time to first response is about 21 days. Applicants report roughly 4 interview round(s).
