I applied in-person. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Nielsen (New York, NY) in Oct 2011
Interview
I knew the sr. level management as this was an internal transfer so i did not go through a formal interview process. Rather, the work I had previously done spoke for itself so I just needed to have several rounds of conversations with various functional folks to make sure they liked me as a person.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Before getting the offer, I was asked to let them know if they were my first choice among divisions I was looking at - which made me feel pressured to say yes and then follow through.
