Interviewed Nov 2011 (took 2 weeks)
not very professional. Questions were like how many tyres are there in the UK? The aim of the question is to see what sort of research process you would go through but the way the questions are structured were really silly. I got invited for two interviews one in manchester and one in Iondon and I'm still waiting on feedback desptie several attempts.

Interviewed Mar 2011 in London, England (United Kingdom) (took a day)
Finding my CV online was requested to attend an assessment day. Day consisted of a 30 min presentation on the company, a 1hr group discussion on developing a fictional business strategy, 1hr writing a one-page review/opinion piece on two different articles, and finally a 1:1 interview. The interview includes a question like, "How many tyres are there in the UK?". The interview seemed less focused on experience and more on your answers to situational questions.

Interviewed Oct 2010 in New York, NY (took 2 weeks)
Began with a phone interview with someone from HR. Next I spoke with the hiring manager for the position, who was friendly, but didn't seem to be too focused on examining me or my skills too deeply. I was then invited in to meet several members of the healthcare practice with two 2:1 interviews, an excel skills test, a powerpoint skills test, and finally another phone call with the hiring manager (who was out of the office that day).
Overall, the entire process was pleasant. My complaint though, is that I reached out to them three times to learn their decision. Although, I was told they'd get back to me, they never did. After playing this game for a month, I gave up.

Interviewed Jun 2009 in Hyderabad (India) (took 2 months)
Datamonitor's interview's are similar to most other market research firms' interviews. You will invariably be asked one or market sizing questions. For example, estimating the number of washing machines in Delhi or the number of barbers in Mumbai. They usually test your ability to approach what can seem to be a complex problem and the emphasis is largely on your ability to break the problem statement down and provide an answer which obviously need not be accurate

Interviewed Sep 2008 in New York, NY (took 1 week)
I thought that the interview was very straightfoward. They wanted to maqke sure that I understaood the product and that I was familliar with industry that I would be selling to. They gave me some basic sales roleplay sscenario. I thought it was an extremely easy interview. I pretty much know that I would get the job as soon as I was done with the interview.
