Technical Coding Other

The interview process was pretty straightforward and not overly technical. It mainly covered regression, fundamental statistics, and the basics of coding languages such as Python and SQL. It would be beneficial to brush up on multiple linear regression and Excel skills beforehand.

Confirmed questions5 questions
  • Could you explain regression and its different types?
  • Tell me about multiple linear regression.
  • What are the basics of statistics?

Presentation Technical Behavioral Group

Applied online. Initially, it was supposed to be a two-stage process with an online panel interview and an in-person presentation over three weeks. There were typical questions and a presentation expected for this kind of position. However, a third stage, a 'meet the team' session, was added about two weeks after the originally planned final interview. It took them five weeks to give a final decision after this third round, and the surprise additional round made the whole experience very long and frustrating. The poor planning and execution really reflect badly on their consulting division.
