Acumen Research Analyst interviews, decoded.

It took me six months from the initial contact to finding out I didn't get the job. There were three interview rounds. The company was really slow to get back to me and didn't tell me how long the process would take.

I had an on campus interview, then four interviews on site.

After applying online, I heard back about a week later about a writing test. I got the writing test back to them, and then about a week and a half after that, I had a phone interview. It was short, only two questions. A week later, they let me know I didn't get the job. The team seemed a bit unprofessional, and the interviewer didn't seem to have reviewed my resume or my writing sample. I was also initially told I would be speaking with a different person than who I ended up speaking with. If the job market wasn't so tough, this experience would have made me reconsider working for Acumen.
