Initial Phone Screening with HR is pretty standard, not much technical questions. They do test your aptitude for marketing analytics via conceptual questions.
If you clear the screening, there is a written test that is given to you. This is mostly quantitative questions with an essay in the end.
2nd round was with 5 professionals within the Custom Analytics department. The interviewers ranged from Snr Analysts to VPs. The questions revolved around general marketing concepts and some statistical techniques, especially linear regression.
