United StatesPosted Feb 2021 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I went through an early, case-heavy round that felt less rigorous and didn’t lead to a strong follow-up experience.

Round 1 (two 30-minute case interviews) — Two interviews focused mostly on cases with limited behavioral; they felt fun and not too challenging.
Round 2 (not reached / delayed response) — In one experience I heard back very slowly and was ultimately not advanced; in another, I didn’t get to the second round after the initial analyst interviews.
Typical structure (when described) — I was asked about my background briefly, then moved into a single case with time for extra questions. Outcome: I didn’t get an offer, and the takeaway was that early case performance alone
