I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Nielsen (Cincinnati, OH) in Jan 2008
Interview
Was contacted by a recruiter for a simple phone interview explaining the job. Then came in for a skills test that took 90 minutes. It test basic math skills and critical thinking skills required for the job. Then I moved on to a series of 1:1 interviews. The interview process was not intimidating. They even took me to lunch as it was a long day.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
A study has a quota of 200. If you can expect 80% of you sample to recovery in 6 days, how many pieces of sample will need to be added to the study in order to reach quota in 6 days.
Its 4:45. The phone is rining from a client who you need to speak to before the end of the day, an email with an urgent flag appears, and your manager is IM's you asking if she can speak to you before you go. You need to catch a bus at 5 and cannot miss it. Howe would you handle the situation and why.
