Candidate-reported interview process

Got a phone screen first, then they flew me out for an in-person interview. This in-person part had 2 rounds of case studies, and if they liked how I did, there was a third round.

The interview process was pretty standard. It started with a phone screen, followed by a couple of technical phone rounds, and then about 4 on-site rounds. The whole thing took around 5 weeks, mostly because of my schedule. The interviewers usually got back to me within 2-3 days after the interviews.

So, the interview process was three parts: first, a phone call to screen you, then an excel test plus a phone call interview, and then an in-person interview day. The first phone screen was pretty chill, just to get a sense of who you are and where you might fit best. Round two involved a 45-minute excel test, and then a chat with the director of the team. The last round had three interviews in person. It was the toughest part, but everyone was really nice and seemed to want you to do well once you got that far.
