I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Nielsen (Tampa, FL) in Oct 2018
Interview
1 on campus interview with 2 interviewers, followed by a super day in Tampa with 3 interview rounds: leadership, case study, team interview. The super day was really fun and I got to meet current employees as well as other candidates.

I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Nielsen
Interview
It started at a career fair. Interview the next day. I had to take a personality assessment which was essentially 12 quick games, I don't think it has any bearing on the process. Then super day at Nielsen headquarters about a month later.
