Mu Sigma Interview Questions

Application

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4+ weeks. I interviewed at Mu Sigma in December 2011.

Interview

Referred through a friend of mine. The HR people sit out of India, so they dont know when to call you. I got calls late in the night to discuss about my application :) Other than that it was a good overall. I had 5 rounds of interviews. 3 over phone, 2 1:1 meetings. One of them in a coffee shop and the other was a lunch, both with senior management team. They are pretty chilled out.

Application

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Mu Sigma (Chicago, IL (US)) in June 2012.

Interview

There was one phone round first which was all case based. I was asked questions such as calculate toll Illinois collects in one day. How much milk is sold in America everyday? After clearing this round there was a face to face round which was very general behavior questions. The third round was again face to face and very technical, all case based. I think they just wanted to intimidate me and make me feel uncomfortable. They gave me a white board and asked me to do all kind of calculations there.

Was long and complicated included a few math tests and you had to solve some general mind game problems. Shouldn't be too hard but at the same time many do not get hired for some unknown reason.

I applied through other source. The process took a week. I interviewed at Mu Sigma (Dallas, TX (US)) in July 2015.

Interview

First, I was sent a case study. A description of a hypothetical business was given and the case study was to identify business opportunities. For the next round I was given a link which had a video of the CEO talking about the business of Mu Sigma, I was asked to summarize the video. I was given a weekend to complete this. Final round was a half hr skype interview, mostly behavioral questions. Expect another round of interviews, I have worked in the bangalore office for 2 years so they didnt do the final step and made an offer instead

Interview

The process was very efficient. I submitted a resume online and the recruiter called me after two days. Then, I was interviewed by a recruiter, an associate, and a hiring manager.
The phone interviews with the recruiter and the associate were pleasant and included some behavioral questions and a case study.

The interview with the hiring manager was a disaster. It was held at a coffee shop, and the hiring manager changed locations several times. Then, he was 30 minutes late to a 45 minutes interview, and didn't even bother to text or email me that the interview has been delayed. It turned out that he was sitting there talking to someone else the whole time. (He claimed that he did not to know that I was there, which means that he ignored my email.) The interview itself contained some canned behavioral questions, a question about "analytics", and a powerpoint with a brain teaser. He kept looking around and checking his phone every three minutes. In other words, he had little regard for my time and didn't care about the interview.
