I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Acumen (Burlingame, CA) in Feb 2016
Interview
Although it took them a while to get back to me, I was given a test using Excel. After completing the test, I was invited for an interview in which they asked typical questions about my experience, quantitative and analytical skills, etc. Nothing out of the ordinary, but be prepared to discuss the writing test they give you.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What kind of experience do you have with data analysis?
Phone Screen Interview
The first round was a phone screening conducted by a recruiter. This conversation focused on my background, relevant experience, and understanding of the role. In-Person Interview
The second round was an in-person interview with the hiring manager and potentially a team member. This round went deeper into my technical expertise and practical experience. I was asked to walk through specific projects, explain my decision-making process, and demonstrate how I approach real-world challenges.

They have 4 rounds of interview, one is more like a written test ,where you get asked some statsiticals or basic math questions. there are 3 rounds face to face interview, mainly behavioral questions
Informational phone call first. If you pass, then you receive an assignment. If you pass, then you are invited to 3 hours of back-to-back interviews for "on-site." About 1-2 weeks between each round. On-site also had a logic test.
