Strata Decision Technology Interview Questions
& Process

The interview felt like a really good chat, not super formal, which was nice. I got to talk about my experience and ask some questions, linking my skills to what they need. The interviewer was cool and seemed interested, and the overall feeling was positive. I left feeling good about the role and hopeful for the next steps.

It was a four-step process. There was a panel interview where they were off-camera and I had to have my camera on. They asked general tech questions, questions about troubleshooting, and we discussed my past experiences. I interviewed with C-suite, the director, and a senior employee. The people interviewing seemed to be interested.

I interviewed with 4-5 different managers and then interviewed with the VP. I found out they were only hiring in Chicago and I was remote elsewhere. I was disappointed because I spent a lot of time and energy on the process, including project management simulations. It would have been easier on everyone if they had set expectations initially.

It was several rounds, starting with a screening call. The second round was a two hour zoom session. The first 45 minutes had two team members asking standard questions about my background. Then there was a 30 minute critical thinking test on a Word doc. The last 45 minutes was more conversational, reviewing my test answers, though they didn't seem too focused on the test itself. The third round was a 30 minute call with a VP. I expected a fourth call with the CEO, but never heard back from the recruiter after the VP call, so I guess I didn't move forward. The interviewers were mostly friendly and not intimidating. The recruiter was responsive until after the third round, then I was ghosted. I put a lot of time into preparing and was really excited, but getting ghosted after the VP interview was disappointing. A rejection email would have been nice. I liked the company, but I won't reapply if other roles open up.
