Beyond, Inc. Marketing Analyst Interview Questions
& Process

I applied online and got a request for Hirevue. Then a manager did an initial screening. After that, I had an hour and a half interview with team mates, the Manager, and the director. It all seemed positive, and I sent a thank you email to HR a couple of hours later, which she responded to positively. I didn't hear back on the day she promised, so I emailed her the next day. She then asked me to take Hirevue again for a different team, which confused me. I asked for feedback on the first interview, but she didn't reply for a few days. I then got an offer from another company and left her a voicemail saying I was waiting for feedback to make a decision. Again, no reply for days. I emailed her again about the offer, and she finally said I needed to come in for another interview. I accepted, thinking it was the next step. She then clarified it wasn't the next step, but a whole new interview for a different team. She also mentioned the team I interviewed for had already hired someone. They didn't even give me a formal reply that I didn't get through. So much confusion, and absolutely zero professionalism. I would never interview with Overstock again.

So I had a phone call with a Marketing Analyst first, where we talked about stats and web metrics, and mostly they asked me personal questions. Then they gave me some advice for the next round, which was in person and a couple weeks later. For the in-person interview, I had to prep a presentation for the analytics team in 20 minutes. I could either critique the Overstock.com homepage or analyze a 3-week data set. I picked the data set and presented my findings to a group of 6-7 people, answering questions about my resume and skills. After that, I had a one-on-one with the manager who asked me some more questions. Two weeks later, they told me they went with someone more qualified. Good luck.

The interview felt pretty chill, not super structured. I had about four 2-on-1 interviews, followed by a 30-minute chat with the SVP. The questions varied a lot, covering my background, some case studies, and some quick math problems. It seemed like each interviewer was looking for different things, not really a consistent theme. The main focus seemed to be on my analytical skills, like what tools and data I've used before.
