Question 1
The whole thing was awful. They were testing to see how far they could push me before I broke. I know this because one of the interviewers actually said that to my face. After 2.5 hours of being asked to do math nonstop, I broke.
The job description listed experience in Excel and SQL and I was not asked about my experience at all. I was asked were brainteasers and probability questions, LOTS of probability questions. The worst was when I was asked to derive a formula. As I was working through the problem, the next interviewer entered the room. He said "You're having her do that?" And both the interviewers laughed. I knew at that point I did not want to work at this company, regardless of receiving a job offer or not. A bunch of elitist snobs.

The test includes six questions and has a time limit of 20 minutes. Once you register for the test, the timer begins immediately so please ensure you set aside a full 20 minutes for this. The first four questions are short answer. Question 5 has one correct answer, but requires a one- or two-sentence explanation. The last question is open-ended, and good answers are typically a couple paragraphs long. You may skip between questions throughout the test, so if you are stuck, feel free to move on and come back to that question later.

You walk into a Las Vegas casino. There are 10 slot machines. 9
of them win 20% of the time. 1 of them, the lucky machine, wins 30% of the time. But you don't know which one is the lucky one (the 30% winner). You watch someone put a quarter into the machine and win. What is the chance it was the "lucky" machine?

The first two rounds were very quick and simple brainteasers. Moved very quickly. In person round was a whole different story. When I showed up, the hiring manager was not available to start the first round, so the recruiter said it'd be a few minutes, but it ended up being more like 20 minutes. Mostly brainteasers, but you can't mess up and need more than one try to answer a question. There was one analyst on the team who was really aggressive and seemed like she didn't want me to do well almost. It was strange. The other analysts seemed pretty interesting and nice.
Worst part? Recruiter said she'd get a decision to me in two days and then I heard nothing. I had to email and call multiple people after waiting most of the day before getting a short and generic no thanks email. You couldn't have sent that without all this prodding?
