Candidate-reported interview process

i did an excel exercise that was like a first round, it was about sorting health sector data. i never heard back after that.

It was all remote. First, I had an HR phone call. Then, I was given a take-home data analysis task. After that, I had another phone chat with a data analyst to go over the take-home work. The last step was an interview with people from three different departments.

You start with a take-home assignment. After that, there's a phone screen where you'll discuss your take-home results. Then, there are a few team interviews where they'll ask you background questions, have you explain your projects, and discuss why you're interested in the company. The interviewers were patient and nice, and they were happy to chat about team culture and their own project insights.
