It took about a month for a recruiter to reach out, but once I had my phone interview, the process was very smooth. The talent acquisition team was really helpful and communicated well throughout. I never felt left in the dark about where I stood in the application process. I got updates often and felt like my time was valued. I didn't have to wait too many days to get interviewed and then eventually offered the job.

I had four interviews total. First was a 20-minute recruiter phone screen about qualifications and the job. Then, a 45-minute Zoom with the hiring manager. After that, another 45-minute Zoom with two other Data & Analytics managers. The last interview was a 45-minute Zoom with the VP of Data & Analytics. The whole thing took about a month, with a week between interviews. It wasn't a typical technical interview, but they did dive deep into the technical details of my past projects. I liked that I could show my skills through my work rather than it feeling like a surprise test.

Confirmed questions3 questions
  • Can you describe a particularly enjoyable project you've completed?

This whole interview thing was pretty fast and worked well. They seemed to focus on my general skills and how they fit the job opening, instead of just looking at my past job titles. First, I had a 30-minute phone call with HR. We talked about my interest in the job and what I thought of it for about the same amount of time we spent on my qualifications. I thought it was a good way to see if I'd be a good fit overall. Then, I went in for an interview with the team I'd be working with. It was mostly about my background and some situational questions. About a week after that, HR got back in touch to talk about the next steps, and I got the job offer.

Confirmed questions4 questions

The phone interview was supposed to be 30 minutes but only took 16. The interviewer didn't let me speak much, but promised a follow-up in 1-2 business days. I didn't hear back, so I emailed her and waited 3 days for a reply. Even with my specific degree and 4 years of experience, they said they are moving forward with other candidates. I guess I dodged a bullet, and either this company is disorganized or this recruiter is terrible at keeping her word.
