For biz ops it was pretty straight forward and direct questions, like here's a huge data set, what's wrong with it, how would you find market share, if optimized what would you optimize and what value would you be able to drive with that client

If your first round is HR it's just a conversation to see you're not full of shit... the next two rounds via phone and share screen are with consultants/managers then third round is in person consists of 4 interview

Say something back to this so I can find the thread in my notifications, I can ask my friend in BT

yea, first round with HR on business tech analyst positions. BI, DW, SsIS

👆is mentioned in the job description. Also are you expected to know these tools and data architecture in and out? Like how technical is this position?

I'm assuming your onshore, it would be extremely costly if your billing rate was the one writing the code... guarantee you'll have to know it to QC but more or less managing an offshore team and driving the meetings/decks/value with the client will be your onshore role

👍

whats the next set of interview rounds like?

zs can you help out?

Been trying to find him in person and via jabber, haven't forgotten you ... keep in mind we sign non disclosures so it's not something I'm trying to discuss via email

how long after your interviews does it take them to respond with go / no-go??

I heard back in a few days for the share screen and next day for the in person

i am done with all interviews. Taking about the actual written offer.

Yeah I heard back Sunday and when I finished Friday

i finished wed

thanks for the troll zs ☝️

would appreciate an answer without troll from zs on the following: 1) how long after all interviews does it take to get an offer in hand or decline? 2) how long does background check and other formalities take?

That wasn't a troll

It was a few years ago so I'm not sure on the time on the background but I recall getting flown in Friday and two days later received a phone call from the managing principal ... I sent a thank you email two days after so who know maybe that email reminded him

Best of luck mate, but I think it shouldn't take long - have you sent a thank you follow-up?

I gave interview in Amazon and cleared all the rounds , then went on hold and still on hold due to hiring freeze in that departement. HR does respond and update me when reached out.

Interesting thing which happened here is iam cracking each every product based interviews now after my tough preparation for Amazon and getting higher packages than what Amazon would give. So whatever happens , happens for good. Cheers Amazon
