I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Nielsen (Chicago, IL) in July 2013
Interview
Submitted my resume online; recieved an email 2 weeks later to set up an screening call with HR. After, completed an online test (personality/logic, similar to "games" portion of LSAT) and was contacted the next business day to schedule face-to-face interviews. Met 1 week later with 3 people in the office; 3 45-minute interviews, all with a different interveiw approach: 1) explain work style and approach; 2) answer how you would deal with sample client issues; 3) technical related - analysis of sample regression model and some simple problem solving from there. Offer extended the next business day.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Give an example of a time you missed a deadline, and how you resolved the issue. Sounds simple, but it was actually difficult for me to think of a time.
The recruiter set up the interview with the hiring manager. Had a great conversation with her and then had a second interview with the head of the team. Spoke with the recruiter and the role had a lot of applicants with similar experience and timelines and was not selected

Question 1
Experience in Stakeholder Management internationally
A very comprehensive and detailed interview process. Friendly environment that doesn’t make interview feel like an interrogation. Company deals with big data and hence having some data based knowledge will be helpful
The interview process was typical, I was screened by HR first and then met with the hiring manager. There was a second round of interviews where I met with the team leads that I would work with.
