Had a phone screener with a recruiter who very clearly did not want to be there and just asked typical generic questions about my background, communication styles, etc. Was given a take home case study and short SQL exercise and given 48 hours to return it (which I spent most of my weekend on) only to receive an auto reject email two days later. I did not get to speak to the hiring manager or anyone on the team I applied for.
Intro call with hiring manager, then take home data analysis project, then 2 interviews with hiring managers (one behavioral and one case questions but not formal case like consulting) and then 2 interviews with skip managers- one behavioral and one case type questions . I was rejected after these two interviews, but the job was reposted on LinkedIn after so I don’t think they hired anyone for the role. Be cautious with DoorDash they have some suspicious and odd hiring practices and it’s a very extensive and long process.

Question 1
How would you get more drivers to use the red food bag provided by DoorDash over a weekend?
Fairly simple recruiting process. Intro chat with recruiter, case study round, debrief of case study, then final round in office with team. Was given an Excel sheet full of transaction data and asked to put together a client-ready deck of slides with insights (graphs encouraged) and recommendations based on what was found.

I went through two rounds, with HR and my would-be manager. Both were fairly straightforward. I did think the manager interview went well, but no dice. I believe they look for a certain style in approach that needs some research.
