HR was very patient. The whole process was smooth and fast. 4 rounds of interviews in total. The first round was ML+resume; the second was python + SQL + easy algorithm, the third round was real case machine learning models, the last round was with one of the managers and asked resume and one machine learning model.

Onsite technical screen had SQL and python coding questions. Format was in a double spaced google doc, which is by far the worst possible way to ask these questions. Interviewer didnt seem to understand the problems during the interview leading to confusion. GEICO, like many financial or insurance companies, have really poor interview processes in place for data science. Bottom quartile compensation = bottom quartile talent.
It was a very strenuous and long process which required a lot of time spending through multiple rounds of interviews and take home exam. Many technical questions regarding ML from multiple interviewers.
