      Senior Data Analyst Interview

      Dec 19, 2014
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Capital One

      Interview

      The interview process was pretty straightforward. There was first an interview with a recruiter which involved five pretty simple math problems which evidently has replaced the online version. I believe they're just looking for the ability to think through the questions in a timely manner. There was also just an overview of my technical skills and professional experience in this interview. From here the recruiter forwarded my resume and details to the "DA Council" who decided I was worth flying out to Richmond. The interview in Richmond was pretty fun. I flew in the night before and stayed in the Marriott near their campus. Met some of the other interviewees in the morning. Overall it was kind of stressful but worthwhile. There was nothing adversarial between my fellow interviewees and Capital One did a good job at making us feel comfortable. It's worth noting that every one of the other interviewees had a Masters in either Stats or Information Systems, though evidently that's not exactly the norm for the Senior Data Analyst role. I was a Bachelors with work experience while 4 of the others had only Masters with little work experience.There were 2 case interview and 2 behavioral interviews for 6 (or was it 4?) STAR questions. I struggled a little with the first BI but did well on the 2 cases and the other BI. After the interviews we had a nice lunch and toured campus with two DAs. After lunch they asked me to stay for one final "BI" interview with a VP, but it was really quite informal. Packed up after that and caught a ride to the airport. Sent out my thank yous and a quick note to the recruiter that night. Got a call the next morning from the recruiter that I was a "recommend for hire," but needed to be "allocated" to a team. I expected that meant a formal offer would be forthcoming very soon, but in the 4 weeks after the interview I have yet to receive an offer and am kind of caught up in limbo, though I still have my current job. It's not like I get picked up in a lottery or anything, it's just that I talk to a hiring manager, they greenlight me and I greenlight them and then I get "allocated." I'm still a "recommend for hire" but I've talked to one hiring manager in this time and that was not a match. Perhaps the reason for this sluggishness is due to the Holiday season, but it's frustrating that I stopped my job search and have waited a month with no allocation. The hiring manager that I talked to said that one of his new analysts waited 3 months to be allocated. WHAT? This is something that was not talked about in any of the other reviews so I hope this brings greater clarity to you job seekers. It was also made out to be much quicker when I talked to the recruiter. I hope this process is eliminated because it's unnecessary and remarkably inefficient. I had a good experience during the interview process and feel very positive about the position overall, but the allocation step has been absurd. Be warned, a "recommend for hire" is not the end of the road, don't halt your job search if you reach that step.

      Question 1

      Everything was pretty straightforward, just read some BI interviews and make sure you can talk about your professional/student experience.
