Candidates describe the Red Ventures Business Analyst interview as manageable but practical. It centers on a hands-on Excel or data case study rather than abstract theory. One candidate got a dataset with three questions and 24 hours to respond, then walked a panel through the work. Another described a case-study round that tested pivot tables and a script in a language of their choice. A third said the case study was mathematically straightforward, but interviewers wanted one decisive recommendation instead of several options.
The early conversations appear to focus on fit. Candidates report being asked why they want Red Ventures, what they know about the company, and how comfortable they are with Excel and other tools. One person also described a hiring-manager conversation built around a retention scenario, where the interviewer cared more about problem-solving than rehearsed answers.
The final stage varies. One candidate reported a panel about a week after submitting the assessment. Another described a power day made up of four interviews. Two of the four Business Analyst reports ended in offers and two did not. One candidate who received an offer noted hearing from others that follow-up after the final stage can be slow. Be ready to defend every assumption in your analysis, keep your logic consistent from one round to the next, and prepare examples of explaining complex findings clearly.

Synthesized from candidate reports. Individual experiences may vary.
Candidates report a short call covering work history, interest in Red Ventures, familiarity with the company and comfort with Excel and other tools. It typically works as a fit check, so prepare a specific reason for wanting this company and concrete examples of tools you have used.
One candidate described a 45-minute hiring-manager conversation with a retention scenario, and another described a behavioral round with a former business analyst. Expect questions about problem-solving approach and communication. Not every candidate describes this as a separate step.
Candidates report working from a dataset in Excel. Tasks included answering three questions, building pivot tables and writing a script in a language of choice. One candidate had 24 hours and spent about 3 to 4 hours. Keep your method documented and your reasoning clear.
Reports range from a panel reviewing the technical work, with behavioral and case questions, to a power day of four interviews. You may be asked to walk through every decision in your analysis and defend a single clear recommendation.
Two Business Analyst candidates report offers and two report no offer. One candidate who received an offer mentioned hearing from others that responses after the final panel can be slow. It may help to ask the recruiter about next steps and timing at the end of the final round.
