I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at USAA (San Antonio, TX) in Mar 2013
Interview
4 1 hr long interviews. Each both technical/situational and personal outlook based. Questions were relevant to risk analysis in statistical analysis (concepts and methods) and understanding of credit/mortgage portfolios.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you determine what type of time-series model to use?
Describe the process in how you model time-series in general.
If I told you that 2 risk variables had a very strong relationship, say with R^2 ~ 0.95, what would you think about that? Should it be higher? Why or why not?
