Recruiter call and then a take-home case study where you analyze an Excel sheet and then write 4-5 pages of recommendations. They also gave me a SQL test. You have 48 hours to complete it.
Felt like a waste of my time. Spent 10+ hours analyzing data only to get rejected without feedback with no opportunity to present my findings. They want you to analyze the data in Excel but if they want people with SQL experience they should just let us query the data in a database.

Question 1
The Case interview had very fine level of details. Like first you will be asked for a recommondation and then there were SO many follow up questions. You need to be thorough and they are testing how you think properly
I had a recruiter call. + a take home assignment with 48 hours to return. I turned that in and I am moving on to a 2nd round interview. recruiter didn't ask me any behavioral questions other than tell me about yourself and why you want the role.
