I applied through university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Hanover Research
Interview
First stage: test of writing speed, thought process, word association, working style
Second stage: HR phone interview - they asked about the answers from that assessment and reviewed job details, including salary range and benefits
Third stage: "homework assignment" where you complete a mock project. You are given a week to do the type of project that you would complete if you joined the company. They are looking for your writing style and research process.
Fourth stage: in-person interview - they ask about your experience, skills, etc, as well as your interest in what the company does. They want to know if you can work with short deadlines and on independent project work. Two 30 minute one-on-one interviews, back-to-back, with people who might become your boss.
You hear a week or two after.

I applied online. I interviewed at Hanover Research in Sept 2021
Interview
The first interview was a phone screening with a recruiter. Super fun conversation and chill process. But for students who want to look for jobs starting at summer, they can’t hold a position for too long if you apply on October or so.
