I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Scale in Dec 2023
Interview
Multiple rounds, mix of behaviour and live problem-solving around their business operations. SQL assessment involved. Behavioural questions loosely around their core values. Problem solving/case questions manageable if you are experienced with Consulting interviews
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
SQL proficiency seemed important to them, even though it was only listed as ‘preferred’ on the job description

Phone Screen, Technical, Behavioral, then another Technical / Case. Not complete yet so have not received verdict. Process has been easy thus far with regard to scheduling and communication. Straightforward experience.
