Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 12 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en Quantcast (Austin, TX) en jul 2016
Entrevista
It started out with a phone screen, then it was a test, then it was a 4 hour on-site to meet every person who you could possibly work with. For the on-site, you sit a room and then go through rounds with sales and other analysts even some video conferencing. That's where it went downhill. They forgot about me and left me in the conference room. I had to see myself out, awkwardly. Then since the hiring manager had changed over this 1 month process I had to re-interview with the basic phone interview. They we're very positive and said it was likely I was getting an offer. They checked in after a week or so and apologized. Something about having issues getting through candidates. I checked back in after a week or so and they said I'd have an answer within another week. Then they ghosted. I finally gave up especially it had the earmarks of a young, naive company that is still trying to figure out how to run like a company. I read the reviews here and it confirmed my suspicion. Regardless, it's hard to take a company seriously when they can't even figure out their own hiring process. In addition, at the point where I had put in over 8 hours of interview time it is common decency to give some type of answer, either yes or no. Would not recommend until they have some time to figure out what type of company they want to be. Also, if you like closure and basic levels of respect- avoid.

Contacted by a recruiter located in Dublin. Had a very pleasant phone screen. I was given a test to complete and send it back to the recruiter. Test was mainly to test your analytical skills, math skills and SQL knowledge. Then had another phone interview with potential manager.
I was invited to an on-site interview with 5 team members, took about 3 hours. Everyone was incredibly friendly and intellectual. I thought I nailed it but I was rejected. Reason being my background wasn't exactly what their looking for.

I was contacted by their recruiting dept and did a 30 minute phone call where I specifically stated that I did not have the set of technical skills they sought. I repeated that to the hiring manager in a second 30 minute phone call and got the feeling from both that it's ok to have a different background. I took a skills test and I proceeded to a set of 4 back to back 30 minute interviews, some via video, one in person. That was exhausting and the analysts that interviewed me seem to want to see that I have the technical background. I understand that since they do the work. Guess what I was turned down from this position for? Lacking the technical skills needed. Overall, the company was very professional and they seem like they're a great bunch to work with but I wish they took the requirements more seriously so that I didn't need to go through all those interviews only to be told something I already know.
