Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Resume Shortlist
Experience: Resume fitting for a data analysis profile are shortlisted. So writing R, Python and programming skills in the cv should help you getting shortlisted.
Almost 200 students were shortlisted for the test
Tips: Make sure you mention your courses or projects related to data analysis in the resume
Round: Test
Experience: The test was on mettl.com
It was a very easy test which judges your quantitative aptitude and logical reasoning (find the next shape, find the missing number). Questions like "find the least no to be multiplied by 100! such that is its divisible by 3^50?" , "find the probability of dice rolled three times to sum up as 10?".
Tips: Preparing for CAT would do. It is a very easy test. You need you ensure that all ur questions are correct as there was a lot of time.
Duration: 60 minutes
Total Questions: 20
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: I expected a very technical round with all sorts of questions on statistics and data analysis. But it was soft spoken interview. They literally want to know why you want to join data analysis and Why Amex? And how passionate are you towards work?
Interview is taken by very experienced people from the company and is more of a discussion about ur cv and projects related to data analysis. They listen to whatever code or piece of programming you have done and how well you know.
I talked about the courses I took to learn data analysis on coursera, my MTP project on optimization and its algorithms and why i wanted to join Amex.
My interview ended with a puzzle which was "There is weight balance and i want to measure from 1 kg to 100 kg. So what is the minimum no of stones and their weights required to measure any material with weght between 1kg to 100 kg.". I solved the problem and then he asked me why do you think this is the most optimum way. I answered it a bit and then he made my problem difficult by adding a information that "we can put weights on both sides". I was not able to solve it but defined the strategy should be used to find solution. My interview ended with my interviewer helping me solve the problem and explaining me the answers clearly. He said he will talk to HR but no HR round happened and I got selected. I would suggest to check with others about the kind of HR questions they ask.
Tips: Be confident, talk about what you know. I started my data analysis in the last semester but was really amazed with the things I studied. So, most important thing is to find out if you like the domain or not. If the domain fits you, its the matter of showing interviewers the enthusiasm towards the subject genuinely.
Knowing data analysis obviously helps but company expects you learn and grow rather learn in the company from most experienced people itself :).
All the Best
General Tips: Placement is the matter of the interviewer understanding your motivation to work with the firm. So show them what you got for them.
Skills: Logical Reasoning, Quantitative Aptitude
College Name: IIT Kharagpur
Motivation: Well, I heard its the best company to work in. The very statement motivated me to work with such a firm.
Funny Moments: After my interview, they asked me to have some cashew nuts which they were eating as it was late and they were hungry. So, I took one and also said that "the whole day was so hectic and I was so hungry :P ". So they asked me to take the whole packet with me and I took.
I came outside with a packet of cashew nuts in my hand with motion of chewing and everyone was like "WTF seriously, did u just come from an interview :P "

Interview and Hiring Process
Hi folks,
Can someone let me know about the hiring process of AmEx? Like, how much time does it take after the last interview to get a response from HR? Also, do they inform if we haven’t cleared the interview or is it obvious? I have been contacting the HR but can’t get a response from them as of now. Its been a week since the last interview round. Any help?

Round: Case Study Interview
Experience: Q: Give me five steps to estimate the number of traffic lights in Bombay.
Me: I will divide the city into equidistant lines, both vertical and horizontal; sort of a mesh. Then I would take vertical and horizontal rectangles i.e. the rectangles which fall on length and breadth of the city. Starting with the horizontal ones I would try to estimate the number of roads going from east to west in each rectangle(depending on the type of area: residential, commercial or a highway) Similarly I would try to estimate the number of roads going from north to south in each vertical rectangle. Now I have the average number of roads per unit length and per unit breadth. Now, I can calculate the average number of roads intersecting per rectangle. Now if I have the data, I can also use the traffic density data to further improve my estimate, i.e. whether the traffic light is required in that rectangle or not.(depending upon the traffic density)
Q: Lets say that golden quadrilateral gets completed tomorrow. What would be its impact on the sales of Ashok Leyland?
Me: Sir, they would increase, as more and more traffic will shift from railways to roadways as the average time taken by road will decrease.
Q: If I say that the sales will decreases by road, the truk will make the same number of trips in less amount of time, thereby rendering overcapacity in the road transport market therefore the sales will decrease.
Me: (I actually didn't let him complete, I interrupted him in between and said that I got the logic)
Tips: Don't try to overstate the facts.

Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Test
Experience: It consisted of 100 questions. You can sit in your room, kick back, relax and take the test.
Tips: A psychometric test through its nature contains a lot of conflicting and contradicting questionnaire. Try to be consistent and keeping humour aside, think logically. This must get you through
Duration: 30 minutes
Total Questions: 100
Round: Group Discussion
Experience: It was case study based GD. We were given a piece of paper containing information about how leveraging technology is changing the nature of work right now and then we were asked to discuss about the future of work in 2020. There were approximately 12 members in my GD and the discussion was going a lot off topic. The company person also instructed us not to deviate from the topic. At last he directly asked people who haven't spoken at all to give their views about the topic and also to conclude it.
Tips: GD's are rather an elimination process so as to consider less number of people for further interviews. Please do keep practising among your colleagues and friends intensively before the placement season starts. A good opening line, structuring and guiding the GD and finally coming to a conclusion are vital parts to easily crack it. If you fail to do the above parts then try to come up with arguments based out of some examples to turn the GD's direction. Articulation. paraphrasing are also very important. So, take your time to phrase your views rather than concentrating on just speaking. If you just speak a lot without putting forward worthy points, you will not make it in.
Duration: 30 minutes
Round: HR Interview
Experience: It was quite a pleasant interview. They did not look through my resume much. It was all about how I was answering their questions. They wanted to know why I am opting for a career in bank when I have taken up Engineering as my Bachelor's degree. They had 3 profiles namely analytics, technology, digital channels and mobile banking.
Tips: Go through their ppt and profiles well.
HR preparation with orientation towards banking would be good
Basic economics knowledge will be helpful
Knowledge about data analytics will also be helpful
