I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Mercer in May 2009
Interview
They were great to interview with - very quick responses. I interviewed over the phone, which was very short. Then an informal one on one interview. Then an extensive group interview lasting several hours. I spent quite a bit of time with each person which made me feel like they were genuinely interested in finding a good match with the employee to the team.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Behavioral questions - "tell me about a time when you showed leadership" etc.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Mercer
Interview
This was an online interview out of college. Very behavioral based questions. This consisted of video recordings with a limited number of takes allowed for each response. Nothing very technical was required
Simple 5 or 6 questions, half behavioural half industry related. 2 interviewers, both asked questions equally. Atmosphere was as expected, and somewhat friendly towards asking them questions, but I would say don’t ask more than 1.
