I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Mercer (London, England) in Apr 2020
Interview
Zoom interview and video based interview, list of questions about situations where you had helped customers solve issues. Questions about putting customer interests first. How do you deal with stressful Situations.
Invited me for multiple rounds and had me interact with their resources at early hours too. No feedback or response post final round, really unprofessional. Do not attend their interviews unless you have things captured on an email.
