I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at The Trade Desk (Toronto, ON) in Mar 2019
Interview
Was contacted by the HR and we agreed upon a date for a telephonic round. HR was very proactive about giving details about the company and the role. During the call, we had a very friendly conversation and various topics like the company's nature of work, culture, etc were touched upon. I was then told by the HR that I would be contacted in a few days for the next rounds and haven't been contacted ever since despite follow up emails.

Question 1
What do you know about Trade Desk and Programmatic Advertising?
So far pretty straightforward: Recruiter screening -> interview with hiring manager -> data presentation -> in-person interviews with different team members. Everyone has been really nice and helpful. Nervous about the data presentation portion.
The process included an initial HR screen, followed by an interview with the hiring manager, and a case study (presentation). Preparing the presentation took a lot of time and good knowledge of the TTD products. The final round would be 1:1 interviews with the team (did not make it to this round).

Question 1
When you look back on your career, what were the things you enjoyed doing and what did you not enjoy so much?
I interviewed at The Trade Desk (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
My recruiter was very helpful and the process is very clear and transparent; however it seems the expectations from the hiring team in the presentation round are very high. It's not as simple as are you willing to learn and work hard it seems.
