Interview
I had three rounds of interviews, one 15-min phone screening with recruiter, then two 45-min rounds with data scientists. The interviews were very structured. In each interview, I was asked to talk about a data analysis project I've worked on. Then I was asked some simple data manipulation questions (you can choose to use SQL/Python/R), basic stats/probability questions, and product analytics case questions. Time at the end to ask the interviewer questions.

Interview
Completed 3 rounds of the process, which includes the initial recruiter screen, technical, full loop, and team matching.
Couldn't move past the full loop interview. The interview was very engaging, and I actually enjoyed working through the cases. No crazy questions.
It's all organized. Be prepared to showcase your depth of thinking. Two analytical rounds will make you think on your ability to solve probability and experimentation problems. Have a structure for everything
