      Director Interview

      Sep 23, 2016
      Anonymous employee
      Schaumburg, IL
      Accepted offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Nielsen (Schaumburg, IL) in Nov 2015

      Interview

      Fairly straight forward discussions. Met with a number of folks from the local team and discussed my background and career aspirations. Really nothing out of normal here. In addition Nielsen asks you to feel out a test ... let's just call it a logic and math skills test.

      Director Interview

      Jun 5, 2015
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through university. I interviewed at Nielsen

      Interview

      I applied online via LinkedIn. ~A week later, a person from my alma mater's career office called to set up an interview with an alum, but not the decision maker. After a phone screen, silence until I reached out to learn if there were any follow-ups. Was told that an internal candidate was hired. I believe I was contacted to fill a certain candidacy quota instead of a real opportunity to work there. Didn't appreciate being used. I think the interview set up via my alma mater was to confirm that I attended/graduated from the school (top 5).
