I applied through college or university. I interviewed at dunnhumby
Interview
Tried to play good cop bad cop in the interview with one interviewer acting very nice and attentive while the other put his head down and would only talk when asking difficult technical questions or challenging my answers. It didn't seem like a good fit as I would like a company where I can befriend coworkers.

Question 1
Do you think Kroger would rather have price elastic or inelastic customers?
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at dunnhumby (Cincinnati, OH) in Mar 2014
Interview
I initially applied for the position online, and was quickly informed that I had passed their initial screen. The next step was a pair of reasoning tests that were not especially difficult; nonetheless, I recommend taking the practice tests first, to familiarize yourself with them. If you don't work fast, time pressure could be a concern. The next step after the reasoning tests was a phone interview. It focused on getting a glimpse of both your personality and your ability to think through problems, so be prepared for both types of questions. The last step was an on-site interview in Cincinnati that involved two interviews that were a combination of case and behavior interviews as well as a case presentation.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at dunnhumby (Cincinnati, OH) in Nov 2013
Interview
The entire hiring process is really fast. Applied online, and got an email the very next day asking me to take an assessment test. The test had 2 parts - basic numerical problems and logical reasoning. The actual questions were quite easy, but the difficult part was time management. Don't linger on any question for too long. A week later, got contacted by a recruiter and arranged a phone interview in 10 days. In the phone interview, they mainly asked questions about past experiences and technical skills, also a few easy behavioral questions, like "tell me a time you have to push hard for your opinion", "give me three words how your team members describe you". A week later, the recruiter contacted me again to schedule an on site interview at their Cincinnati HQ, which consisted a dinner with recent graduate employees the night before, two 45 mins 1-to-1 interview, and a case study. I had 45 mins preparing for the case study, and 45 mins presenting it to an interviewer in informal conversations. 2 days after onsite, got a call offering the position.

Question 1

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at dunnhumby in Nov 2012
Interview
The interview process is incredibly selective. It consists of a phone interview or on-campus interview, followed by an online assessment and then an on-site interview super-day. In the interviews, you discuss your experiences as well as are asked some analytical questions, more to see how your brain thinks than if you can get the right answer. The day concludes with a case study.
