I applied online. I interviewed at Nielsen in Dec 2020
Interview
Very easy interview process. We were told to come up with Appointment Scheduler API that will basically perform CRUD operations. I had 5 rounds (1 Coding, 1 System Design, 1 Infrastructure Architect, 2 Behavioral) all went well and i was told during the interview itself that i did very well. I turned down the offer as they were trying to low ball me with salary and i know that what i estimated was fair enough as they are still doing manual deployment till this date, they don't have any CICD process, neither do they have appropriate automation. I was bit disappointment that i laid out my salary expectation before the interview and yet they would come up with very low offer. Usually this is what happens when they have 200+ candidates in pipeline waiting to accept the low salary. Sorry Nielsen not my cup of tea !

Interview
Recruiter contacted me by email to book a phone interview.
Recruiter failed to call me at the appointed time and never responded to the follow-up email.
Grossly unprofessional and gave me a negative impression of the company.
it is pretty smooth, went throught three interviews, and the waiting period is typical. it is pretty smooth, went throught three interviews, and the waiting period is typical. it is pretty smooth, went throught three interviews, and the waiting period is typical
