J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez ZS Associates (New York, NY) en mai 2017
Entretien
In general an extremely long and drawn out process. At least half of it seems redundant and unnecessary. Phone screen with HR to final offer took about 4 weeks. Total interview time is around 6-8 hours if one counts the full cycle.
Contacts are very quick, professional, helpful and efficient with all the steps and conduct themselves in a friendly manner. There were some delays that may be due to technical issues.
Four-part on site interview with 4 different slots. Begins with case study presentation where you must make a slide presentation. Overall lasts about 1.5hrs. Second you meet with a peer who tells you about the work involved for about 1hr. Third you meet with an associate partner/principal for another hour where further test-type/behavior questions. Lastly you meet with a full partner/principal for another getting to know type of round, another hour.
Went through the typical HR call in the initial stage; I felt that the interviewer was disinterested, but still proceeded to mention that the team will schedule an interview with me by end of the week.
I followed up a week after when they initially mentioned I can anticipate to hear back from the team. The process entailed 2 stages, with the initial stage online, and the second stage in person.
Interview comprised of 5 rounds,
1) HR phone screen for role alignment
2)Technical discussion with Senior Consultant (tools, data engineering/SQL)
3)Hiring Manager round (technical + behavioral)
4)Project presentation on an end-to-end pipeline (with Senior Manager & Associate Principal)
5) Final discussion with Principal
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Tell me about the project you worked on where you created an end-to-end data pipeline
It was very streamlined and structured. Three rounds and the first round was the most difficult one, this was followed by a case study and two rounds testing my technical capability followed by a fitment round.
