Case Technical Behavioral

It was a long 4-hour interview with 4 interviewers. Each round or section lasted about an hour. Every round started with a hands-on exercise or test, and then moved into behavioral questions. Two of the rounds were pretty straightforward. They'd present a use case and want you to work through it with them. In these two rounds, they were assessing how well you collaborate and how good you are at coming up with business solutions. The last two rounds were case study focused. One case interview would likely be a cost-benefit analysis, and the other would be a more quantitative problem or case. Neither required super advanced math skills; GMAT math level is sufficient.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • Is it feasible if the DC government/municipality decides to change all street lights to solar based lights? (This is basically a cost-benefit analysis.)
  • There was a math question about a machine process in a factory. 4 lines of machines in one process with different success/failure rates and completion times. There were 3 questions about the process end and completion time.

Case Technical Presentation

The whole process took about a month, and there were several stages. It began with a screening exercise, then a phone interview. After that, they invited me to the office for a really in-depth interview, which had two case studies and a UML diagramming exercise. This company says they value talent and intellect and that technical skills are not that important, but honestly, they don't really live up to that ideal. It feels like they can be a bit arrogant and act like they're better than you because of your academic background.

Confirmed questions3 questions
  • Perform a cost-benefit analysis.
  • Complete a UML diagramming exercise.
  • Solve a case study focused on quantitative reasoning.

Behavioral Technical Case

They emailed me to set up a phone screen, which I did with the Biz tech manager, Mike Garcia. After that, I had a face-to-face interview that was about 4 hours long and included 3 rounds. The first round was with the Manager, and the second and third rounds were with senior analysts from the team.

  • Could you tell me about your resume, work experience, and projects?
  • How would you write test cases/plans for a bank statement payment scenario?
  • Can you create a UML diagram for the Amazon item ordering process?
