Interviewed Nov 2011 (took 4 weeks)
I submitted several applications to Client Manager positions in several locations, and got called by HR representatives for initial screen interviews for 3 of them (over a period of a few weeks). The first arranged for a written test at a nearby Nielsen location, which I learnt I passed after checking on the applicant website. There was a bit of a delay thereafter - it turned out that particular client couldn't decide how they wanted to proceed, or had some issues with my background.
In the interim, I was contacted by the other two recruiters, one of whom set up a hiring manager interview for me. After I had made non-cancellable travel arrangements, they decided to make it a phone interview, but relented when I explained the situation. At the interview it became clear though that I didn't have much of a shot, because the hiring manager was looking for someone with more experience in using Nielsen products.
My impression was that the hiring managers were looking for a 100% candidates, while the recruiters were much more adept at spotting longer-term potential. Everyone was very professional, and at least one of the recruiters seemed to go out of her way to be my advocate.

Interviewed Apr 2011 in Mumbai (India) (took 4 days)
Bit mismanaged, the recruiter informed me that the interview would consist of basic math /logic test followed by F2F interview. Instead I had a F2F interview first followed by a Semi advanced math/Data analysis / Grammar test. God - i thought wren and martin was history but post this test I was forced to come back and refer to this Grammar goddess . To me this test format is really old and Nielson's are busy to change it. Who on earth cares if its nielsons's or nielson's strategy - this is one of the questions of grammar test. Well, post interview no one inform if u made it or not and for what reasons. I had a good interview round and may have missed by 1 mark or 2 on the test as it went off well as well.

This was the very first round by HR. Very simple situational questions about handling a cpg clients business question. She mentioned next wud have been an analytical round on site. Went well but the compensation pkg seemed low compared to my current place of work.

Interviewed Dec 2009 (took 4 weeks)
Tough math test to pass, and not sure it is applicable for the job. Interesting company to work for, however, I'm not sure I would recommend it to others considering applying there. Lots of opportunity to move around if you are willing to move to different areas of the country.
