J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. J'ai passé un entretien chez USAA (San Antonio, TX) en août 2017
Entretien
The process started with a phone call from a recruiter to determine if the position was within the parameters of what I was looking for. The next step was a phone interview to determine if I was a viable candidate. Questions were straight forward and were behavioral in nature. The final round of interviews was an on site and there more behavioral questions. The interview was a panel type and was very relaxed. It was a great interview experience.

Entretien
just so you know, it is very difficult to get an interview with USAA. If you do get the opportunity to interview, do not squander this shot. I applied to multiple jobs that I had the perfect qualifications for and received so many rejection notices, even after I had this job I still received rejection notices. Stay positive. People get hired here every day.
You can increase your chance of getting an interview by tailoring your resume to the job posting (use an app like jobscan). A few tweeks to your resume can get it moved up to the top of the stack. Shoot for 80%.
Also, in the application process, there are a few questions, such as: do you have 5 years experience. If you answer any of these 'no' you will not get the interview. just remember, without the interview you cannot get the job.
My interview was with the hiring manager and the lead engineer.

Question 1
Why do you want to work here? (this was the second question that they asked)
Tell me about some of the statistical tools that you have used in past projects. (be ready for questions about the area that you are applying - stats, project management tools, HR systems, coding languages, etc.)

Entretien
Initial interview was an informal, three-person panel via telephone. In the first interview it is PARAMOUNT to show you know the company's mission and how you align with it (having a close relative in the military helps).
Second interview was face-to-face with the same three people, more technical questions related to tools and resources used in past experiences. I brought a redacted example of a previous DMAIC project to reference for these types of questions.
Overall was a great experience, which lasted about 3 weeks. I highly recommend brushing up on the 'vision and mission' section of the careers website. An internal referral helps immensely!

Question 1
Name a situation where you had difficult stakeholders and had to get buy-in and alignment from each of them.
Have you ever completed a project only to come back 3 months later and discover the improvement was not sustained? What, if anything, did you do to 'sustain the gain'?
