DoorDash Data Scientist Interview Experience: SQL, cases, and virtual onsite

DoorDash·Data Scientist·Reported Jul 2026

An HR-style call covered the role, compensation and benefits, and the hiring flow. The technical screen began with four medium SQL questions in a HackerRank-style format. I barely had time for the last one and got the impression they did not expect a full solution.

A case study followed, where I explained how I would approach an open-ended business problem. After passing, I had a virtual onsite with four rounds: one behavioral conversation with a cross-functional partner and three more case-study rounds in the same general technical style. The onsite tested consistency rather than new surprises. It felt harder than a typical DS loop but still within what I expected. I was not selected, which felt more like being qualified but not chosen than failing one topic.

Location: São Paulo, São Paulo. Overall feedback: positive. Offer status: no offer.
