I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Dataminr in Jan 2016
Interview
I was contacted by an employee who had been working in the same position. We had a ~15 minute phone interview. I was contacted for a second phone interview with a separate employee, same structure. They contacted me a few days later saying they were moving forward with other people. The process was unclear with little transparency, and no actual HR or recruitment involved.

If you read about an event like a shooting on Twitter, what would your process be to assess the level of seriousness or viability for that event, using Twitter only. What do you like to do in your free time.

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.

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.
