South KoreaPosted Sep 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I applied as a new grad through a referral, and the process started with an email that substituted for a phone screen.

That email asked a handful of questions up front, and then I moved into a single technical interview focused on SQL. From there, the onsite stretched over two days and totaled four interviews.

Across the onsite, I did SQL and statistics rounds, plus product sense and behavioral. Even though each segment was different, the consistent theme was translating data thinking into clear, structured reasoning—especially when stats came up. The product round felt like it was assessing how I would frame a metric, interpret changes, and communicate trade-offs.

I didn’t get an offer, but the experience
