Interview
First, you complete an assessment. Then, you do an "On Demand Interview" where you record your answers to a bunch of STAR questions. If you pass that, a recruiter will reach out to schedule an hour long interview with the Market Managers: one 30-minute behavioral interview and one 30-minute job fit interview. They asked a lot of STAR questions. Make sure you have at least 5 stories for the questions.

The interview process had three rounds.
The first was a behavioral round. It felt relaxed and conversational. The interviewer focused on getting to know me through questions like tell me about yourself and tell me about a time you faced a challenge.
The second and third rounds were technical, both centered on business case studies. In each round I was given a problem and asked to walk the interviewer through my thinking step by step to save the problem.
