I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Dataminr in May 2018
Interview
I was referred by a classmate who had just joined Dataminr. The process was extremely quick and the HR person who contacted me was more than helpful. She remained with me every step of the way and texted me after interviews to congratulate me on my performance. They took into consideration that I had received an offer at another organization and sped up the process. The interviews were more like relaxed conversations. It is an opportunity to present your knowledge about your region or area of focus, and to talk about it with potential future co-workers. When I excused myself from consideration due to personal reasons, the whole HR team was very understanding and invited me to re-apply if I changed my mind in the future. I have no doubt that I will.

Interview
Had a first interview which went really well, then had a test which went great too, then had an interview with a Senior Director and the interview went really well and I had all the skills required but I was rejected. I was very confused and asked for feedback but never received any. Impossible to get in touch with anyone and the only person who would assist referred me to the HR person who never answered my request. Would recommend that the company and the people they hire put more effort into answering emails and providing a way to communicate with the people who interviewed you.

It was very easy recruiter phone interview. It lasted for 30m. It was typical first interview when it comes to the general first questions. She was friendly recruiter and answered all the questions I had.

Interview
Did so many interviews (5 in total) as well as a quiz. It was an extremely lengthy process and there must not have been any communication between the different interview panels as they asked the same questions each time. It became very repetitive and draining.
