J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Acumen (Burlingame, CA) en juin 2021
Entretien
Applied online and Recruiting followed up through email shortly after.
Over the course of 3-4 weeks, I had a recruiter screening, coding sample & transcript submission, data exercise, data exercise review with an analyst, logic test and panel interview with four different people.
Everyone was friendly, but the data exercise review was awkward. The two people I was scheduled to meet with didn’t show up, and the new interviewer didn’t even introduce herself. She also sounded as though she was reading from a script.
Recruiters are relatively responsive, although it took them about three weeks to send me my offer letter. I followed up with them at one point, and they didn’t respond.
Logic test is kind of like the GRE quant questions. I question how useful it is to assess candidates.
Overall negative experience considering the length of time it took to send me news about the offer + not notifying me about the interviewer change + multiple rounds of assignments/interviews that ended in an offer with such low compensation, which is well below market average in the Bay Area.

Phone Screen Interview
The first round was a phone screening conducted by a recruiter. This conversation focused on my background, relevant experience, and understanding of the role. In-Person Interview
The second round was an in-person interview with the hiring manager and potentially a team member. This round went deeper into my technical expertise and practical experience. I was asked to walk through specific projects, explain my decision-making process, and demonstrate how I approach real-world challenges.

Question 1
Walk through specific projects from the past experience.
They have 4 rounds of interview, one is more like a written test ,where you get asked some statsiticals or basic math questions. there are 3 rounds face to face interview, mainly behavioral questions
Informational phone call first. If you pass, then you receive an assignment. If you pass, then you are invited to 3 hours of back-to-back interviews for "on-site." About 1-2 weeks between each round. On-site also had a logic test.
