I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Forrester
Interview
I had a series of 1:1 discussions with manager, peers, and other people on the research team over a few weeks. The discussions were generally informal but some difficult questions were asked that required a lot of on-the-spot knowledge and recall. Overall not a stressful interview effort.

Question 1
They were specific to the specific research area, but for an example, provide some advice around application security to an organization that is seeking to build an application in XYZ space
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Forrester
Interview
I received a first interview invitation a few days after I have applied for the position. The recruiter spent 15 minutes talking about another position at Forrester until realizing it was not the same one I have applied for. After emailing the recruiter twice about the second interview as we spoke about in the first one, no rely was received and I found out I was no longer a candidate by looking it up via their recruitment portal.
Overall, extremely unprofessional HR.
The interview process can last several months with many rounds of interviews. Many different stakeholders are involved. Involved writing and presenting research findings on a preselected topic. The process is designed to ensure that the best talent is getting through - and therefore is appropriate.
