Senior Analyst at Forrester Research

5.0
Very Difficult Interview
Overall Positive Experience Received and Accepted Offer

Interviewed Jan 2007 (took 2 months)

Lengthy and intense process which involves multiple phone and in-person interviews; writing a research paper and going through two rounds of edits; and presenting on your research paper to a team of analysts in person and on the phone. The analysts attending the presentation will challenge your findings and force you to explain/defend any claims.

Interview Questions

Scenario based questions about the advice you would give to a client in specific circumstances. This was an opening question that led to several other questions based on your answers.

Negotiation Details

Not much wiggle room. It is pretty rigid about salary bands and stingy with alternatives such as options/sign-on bonuses.

Other Details

I got the interview through an Employee Referral and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview, a Presentation and a Skills Test.
