Interview
I got this opportunity by its campus-visit recruitment. Before the job interview, the recruiting representatives hold an information meeting in our department. The whole interview process last about 40~45 mins for each interviewer. The HR had a list of technical questions, including the basic statistical concepts, analytical questions and a big consulting question. The basic statistical concepts is not hard, but for the other two parts, it may be difficult for candidates without related modeling experience.
