Interview
I applied online and was contacted a month later to set up a phone interview. Prior to the interview I was given a data set to examine which would be discussed during the interview. The data was straight forward and the interviewers were very nice.
After about a week and a half I was contacted to set up a 2nd interview in which they flew my to the Oakland office. The atmosphere of the office was very laid back which I really liked. The interview day consisted of 4 interviews with different senior staff with the conclusion being taken out to lunch with some of the junior staff.
