I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Mercer (Cardiff, Gales) in Feb 2021
Interview
I applied online and the next day I received an email requesting a phone screen interview. I replied to arrange a suitable time, but had no response. The next day between 8:30am - 9am I had 6 missed calls and no voice message left. I then checked my email and had a response from Mercer saying that they tried to contact me. I responded to their email giving a suitable time for them to contact me but as soon as I sent the email they phoned me. Although it wasn't scheduled for this time and it wasn't convenient I did take the call and did my best to answer Krizzia's questions. The next morning at 5ish in the morning they said they won't progress my application.
Another thing, the day after I applied I had 13 missed calls and no voice message left. I thought it was one of those phone scammers, but when I had the 6 missed calls the next day in the space of a half an hour and an email from Krizzia Ang I did connect the dots. I felt the way she approached me and interviewed me was very strange and unfair. I mean which interviewer harasses they candidates with call after a call after a call - it really wasn't a convenient time.
Very disappointed as I really thought it would be a good opportunity for me and I would be a great fit.

Applied online, then had a small phone interview just asking super basic questions. I then got offered a full zoom interview. The interviewer was super friendly and the questions were all standard interview questions - nothing too out there!

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Mercer (Exeter, Inglaterra) in Sep 2019
Interview
After submitting the application online, a few weeks past and I received a phone call from a member of Mercer's recruitment team, together with an email for a phone screening. After a conversation with the recruiter, in which they provided me with more information about the role, we arranged an interview at Mercer's Exeter office. They were very accommodating and were able to reschedule the interview after I was unable to attend the previously suggested date. The questions asked were well suited to this role and staff provided useful further explanations when requested. I left the interview with a positive opinion of the company. After contacting me and informing me that they would like to consider me for another role, Mercer very kindly arranged another phone interview with another member of staff to further discuss the new position. I was very happy to accept the position and look forward to taking the next step in my career at Mercer.
