I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Nielsen (Wilton, CT) in Oct 2017

Two 30 minute, 1:1 interviews on campus. Relatively simple interviews, mostly behavioral/conversational. Superday was at HQ in Connecticut and was pretty brutal (not difficult, just LONG). Consisted of five 30 minute interviews, a group case study that every group was working on past midnight (which we presented first thing in the morning at 8:30am)
