I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Nielsen in Oct 2014
Interview
I applied online through my University. I was then contacted and asked to do an online test that asked questions about my work habits and logic questions (similar to LSAT logic questions). After this I was contacted and told that I received an interview and they suggested I attend an informational event, which I did. I then had my interview the next morning with a woman I met the night before.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked a pretty simple case-ish question, which they kind of explained how to do the night before at the informational session. It was something like, company X wants to know where to place a product on a shelf what information should they have to make this decision.
The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Nielsen (Chicago, IL)
Interview
I was recruited through on campus recruiting. After going to the info sessions, I was then invited to an interview. Before the interview, there was a dinner event to get to know the people. The people were truly great!

I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Nielsen in Feb 2011
Interview
So I applied through my school and interviewed on campus. The day before the interview they held an info session to tell all the candidates in-depth information about the company, which definitely helped in the interview, Because they asked Case Study type questions.
The assessment test has 10 math questions and 2essay questions. The math section focuses heavily on reasoning, and concepts. I found it pretty tough.

Question 1
A client calls and ask if they should invest in the tire industry, how would you find out if it's a good idea or not? (assuming Nielsen does not track tire sales).
