Interview
The hiring manager is late for my interview and I don't think he read my resume. He asked some questions about my resume but it seems that he doesn't care about the answer.
I applied online. I interviewed at Coalition in Sep 2025
Interview
Interview had the typical recruiter screening video call, hiring manager, tech/skill assessment, director interview, and offer stage.
Everyone I had a chance to meet was super nice, excited about bringing new talent to the Company, and Coalition's roadmap.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Professional background, business and data situations like "How would you handle conflicting priorities" or "How do you present technical topics to a non-technical audience".
For tech skill, there were a few SQL-related questions and Python. Nothing too difficult and completely within the expectations of tech company screening tests.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Coalition in Nov 2024
Interview
4 stages:
1. HR screen (30 mins)
2. Take home SQL coderpad (1 hour)
3. Hiring manager screen (1 hour)
4. Onsite - SQL (1 hour), analytics (1 hour), behavioural with PM (1 hour), bar raiser (1 hour)
Fairly standard SQL and analytics questions so no surprises. A bit of a lengthy process but overall enjoyable as everyone was extremely friendly and conversational. The recruiter was very helpful with answering all my questions.

Interview
Great interview process; 2 technical rounds (SQL, Python), a case study, a few cross functional ones, and optional ones that you can request if you want to learn more about people you'd work with.
Recruiter was awesome: very responsive and provided tips before some of the more critical interviews.

SQL: joining, grouping, what trends you see in a sample bar chart
