I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Nielsen (Racine, WI) in Dec 2013
Interview
The overall interview process was fabulous. I interviewed in three days for the current position that I am in, and did not have to come back multiple times. The VP of the area went over the job in great detail, and she was able to answer any and all questions that I had.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Nielsen (Chicago, IL) in Apr 2013
Interview
I applied online; 2 weeks later HR did a phone interview with me. I was sent the assessment test and then talked with the hiring manager. The interview itself was almost combative in nature which surprised me. Two weeks after that, HR let me know they went in a different direction.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why did you apply to my open position instead of BASES where your most recent experience lies?
