The whole process was quite long. They will send you a coding exercise first and if you pass this, they will schedule a hiring manager to talk to you. If you clear this round, you will be invited to an on-site interview.

Having a good recruiter to help you in the interview process goes a long way in making the interviewing journey less stressful and satisfying. I was fortunate to have a great recruiter to work with. The first step is a screening call with the recruiter. Routine stuff about the resume and interests. Then you are given a choice of 10 data-sets and you need to pick one. You analyze the data and create a presentation in a weeks time. An analyst goes over it and determines if you should get the next round. Then comes a 45 min skype round with a Product Manager. Do you research about the insurance industry for this round. You will require it to answer the questions meaningfully. An analytical or modeling background helps a lot too. If you clear this round, they will fly you out to Columbus, Ohio for a full day of on-site interviews. These are intense as you might have 4-5 rounds with multiple people. The conversations will take a deep dive into your background, your experience, your suitability for this role etc. Be prepared to go deep into your analytical projects and also provide business sense that those projects made. (Remember: Insurance analysts are all about identifying trends and improving your insurance model to better the competition and provide the best rate to your policy holders). Throughout the process, the recruiter kept me posted about the updates and was prompt in replying. As an interviewer, this soothes your nerves and lets you concentrate on the more important stuff.
