I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Signal49 Research in Nov 2023
Interview
Tree rounds of interviews to meet the team and senior management followed by an assessment. Not so complicated but the process was long and I got ghosted at the end!!
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Economics and data management questions. Like what's the first thing you do after collecting your data? Or do you think the Bank of Canada will decrease its policy rate.
Very informal and unprofessional. It turned me off- had to go through 6 interviews. I knew after the third one that it's not the place for me due to misalignment of expectations, poor career trajectory and a senior leadership that didn't know what it wanted from the role!
So many interviews with different members. Very inefficient process. No wonder they have so many negative reviews. I decided to not continue this process after the second interview.
The managers and senior members I met during my interviews seemed nice.
