1. The HR lady calls you for a basic interview to ask who you are, what is your experience, why do you want to work at DoorDash. She asked me to submit 3 essays to provide examples of times when I used data, critical thinking, and/or analytics to get a job done.
2. I passed, so they emailed me 3 csv (excel) files for an analytical test. I had 24 hours to answer a ton of questions based on the data files. You need to know IF Statements, SumIfs, Boolean terms, and Pivot Tables.
3. There were were some short answer questions too for qualitative responses.
4. I passed again, so the HR lady set me up with 3 separate video conference interviews. They don't use simply platforms like Google Hangout or Skype - they make you download Zoom
5. The first and second video interviews seemed like a joke. You are dressed in professional clothing while the interviewer is dressed in a t-shirt sitting in front of cardboard boxes, stacks of delivery packages, and a dirty wall. It almost looks like the interviewer is inside a closet.
Beware of the final interview because I literally think they were just Idea Fishing! The last guy was the Director of Product Operations, and he was probably IDEA-FARMING. He kept asking me for more and more ideas for pitching to restaurant owners. I provided multiple ideas and then a couple days later HR called to say they're not hiring me.
The whole process took 4 weeks
