J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris plus de 2 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez Forrester en sept. 2022
Entretien
A recruiter reached out to me regarding the opportunity. After an initial phone screen, I completed a conversation with internal talent acquisition. Next, I completed a virtual interview with the hiring manager/research director. During that interview, I was informed to allow 30 days for the process. Then, I completed two one-on-one interviews with peers and one interview with another research director. I advanced to the writing exercise and presentation phase of the process. I gave the presentation four weeks after my interview with the hiring manager. At that time, I was informed by the talent acquisition individual that I would be contacted with a decision in the next few weeks. Six weeks after the presentation, having received no communication, I followed up with the talent acquisition individual and hiring manager via email. Three days later, the individual called to inform me I was not selected for the position. In summary, the process consisted of 2 phone screens with recruiter/talent, 4 virtual interviews, a writing sample, and presenting via Teams. The entire process took 12+weeks from initial contact.

Question 1
The one-on-one interviews with peers focused on behavioral based questions (e.g. tell me about a time when)

Entretien
I received a first interview invitation a few days after I have applied for the position. The recruiter spent 15 minutes talking about another position at Forrester until realizing it was not the same one I have applied for. After emailing the recruiter twice about the second interview as we spoke about in the first one, no rely was received and I found out I was no longer a candidate by looking it up via their recruitment portal.
Overall, extremely unprofessional HR.
The interview process can last several months with many rounds of interviews. Many different stakeholders are involved. Involved writing and presenting research findings on a preselected topic. The process is designed to ensure that the best talent is getting through - and therefore is appropriate.

Entretien
I had a series of 1:1 discussions with manager, peers, and other people on the research team over a few weeks. The discussions were generally informal but some difficult questions were asked that required a lot of on-the-spot knowledge and recall. Overall not a stressful interview effort.
