Fantastic overview - your coaching is super-helpful and I greatly appreciate your empathy.

Amrita is a fantastic coach! She is equally good at providing feedback for both the analytical parts of the interviews (such as product case questions, metrics, data science techniques...) as well as for the behavioral loops of the interview process. I've worked with her a few times now and in every session there is something new or unique that I learn. Her style is also very collaborative! Given her strong professional background she has very high standards and it comes through in the feedback she shares. I highly recommend Amrita for coaching and would hire her again any time!

She was great! Informed me as much as she could about what classes are important for data science and where the future of data science is going.
