Application
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Red Ventures (Charlotte, NC)
Interview
1. HR Phone Screen - The HR just asks general questions.
2. Technical Phone Interview - This is mainly to talk about past experiences and certain technical questions based on your resume with one of the data scientists.
3. 4-hour Modeling Challenge - They give you 4 hours to analyze a dataset and build a model to make predictions on a test set. At the end of 4 hours you need to only submit your code. For the final round, you will be asked to make a presentation to present.
4. Onsite - Interviews with different data scientists and managers. Some are behavioral, one to present the presentation and one to go over the code.
1st round is with the recruiter.
Then they give a case study.
Then, a technical round, based on the case.
I got ghosted after I completed the case study, which I worked on for hours. rude.

Interview
Phone screening with recruiter followed by a take home assignment. They said the take home should be 3-4 hours but realistically it takes a good 20. There were multiple parts involved and file structure requirements. I put a lot of effort into the assignment only to get completely ghosted. Not even a boilerplate rejection email. I am fine with being ghosted after a recruiter call but at least have the decency to answer a follow up email when a candidate spent their entire week on a take home.

Questions vary based on interviewer. It seems they just come up with some technical questions on the fly. IMO, if you know your stuff regarding traditional data science you can answer most questions.
