Overall, it was a pretty involved interview process. It included a take home writing assignment, phone conversation with HR manager, and three in-person interviews. I spoke to employees at every level, including another Jr. Research Analyst and the CEO, and had conversations about my professional experience, personal interests and hobbies, and an in-person case study.
The process was hands down the most efficient, respectful, and transparent that I have encountered. The HR manager was extremely communicative about next steps in the process, and there were no unexplained gaps in correspondence. My sense is that they really care about making people feel appreciated and valued, both as candidates and employees, and have worked to improve upon negative reviews written here.
My only recommendation would be to share information about the candidate more readily between interviewers. I answered some of the same questions 7 or 8 times, which can feel redundant and frustrating.
In the end, I wound up taking an offer from another company before hearing back yes or no from ValuePenguin.
