Applied in March, received an email early April from a recruiter in which I was given a logical reasoning test to complete online. After passing this step, I had a phone interview with the recruiter the first week of May. The interview went well and I was asked general questions about my interest in the company and my previous experiences with research and how that would apply to the position. I then received notice that I would be given a mock report to write. After requesting to start the report two weeks later, I was given the prompt and it took me about 20-25 hours to complete it within a week. I was pretty confident that I'd move on to the final interview but was notified that the other candidate was chosen due to their experience in the market research field. The interview process was long, especially the report, but I respect their way of recruiting.
