I applied through other source. I interviewed at DraftKings
Interview
Applied through Ripplematch.
Got cut off after round 2. I was also really confused because the interviewer for round 2 was not the same person they told me it would be in the interview confirmation email. (Or at the very least, the first name given by interviewer did not match the first name given in the email.)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Round 1: a few simple probability / expectation questions.
Round 2: case study about coffee shop & revenue / profits
Thank you for taking the time to interview at DraftKings. There are few times where we need to swap interviewers due to pressing business needs. However, we strive to communicate any changes to the candidate. We apologize if you were not given ample warning of any changes to the interview line-up—best of luck in your job search.

Other Business Data Analyst Interview Reviews for DraftKings
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at DraftKings in Oct 2024
Interview
4 rounds of interviews.
HR: Standard HR phone screening asking about your experience, why draftkings, etc.
Case Study 1: over the phone case study asking to calculated the expected value of tickets based on various situations. First is to calculated EV of tickets for an online sale vs buying from third party person at the stadium with a 20% chance of ticket being fake. Additional calculations are needed further into the question as other complexities are added, like if there is a raffle paying out $20k with a 1% chance of winning, what is the EV, and which option has the highest EV?
Behavioral: 30 minute video behavioral round asking about how you dealt with various situations. pretty standard
Case Study 2: Consulting style case study with an analytics twist that asks you to draw visualizations that would support your theories for why the customers are dissatisfied with the hypothetical train service. You are given information about the entire setup of the train system and asked to formulate possibilities for why customers are dissatisfied, draw graphs of data that is available that would prove or disprove if these theories are correct, and then come up with solutions to a chosen problem.
1st round: phone screening with statistics and probability case study
2nd round: phone interview with business case, similar to a consulting business case
3rd round: zoom interview with a behavioral section and another statistics case study
Typical behavioral and case interview questions. The interviews are very nice and welcoming. Be prepared to handle quantitative cases using basic probability concepts and qualitative cases. Make sure to always speak out loud so the interviewer knows your thought process. Had a final round scheduled but accepted another offer before completing it.
