The interview process was super easy, mostly behavioral questions and some SQL concepts like different types of joins. The hardest part was just getting the interview itself, as they really preferred candidates with an actuarial background.

Behavioral Technical

I applied through college or university and the whole process took about two weeks. I had an interview at the university. The first round was a 45-minute 1-on-1 with a director from the technical team where they asked some behavioral questions like how I show my creativity. The second round was a phone interview focused on technical questions.
