      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      6 Jan 2026
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Bengaluru
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Nielsen (Bengaluru) in Sept 2024

      Interview

      The interview process was fairly smooth and straightforward. After an initial discussion with HR, where the role and expectations were clearly explained, I went through two technical interview rounds. The first was with a senior developer, focusing on technical skills and problem-solving. The second was with a director-level interviewer, covering both technical depth and overall fit for the role.

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Nielsen in Jan 2025

      Interview

      I recently went through a three-round interview process with Nielsen, and I was left feeling disappointed and frustrated. The process was lengthy, taking around two weeks to complete, and consisted of: - A technical round with BarRaiser, which focused on SQL, Python, Spark, and technical skills. - A second technical round with a Nielsen team member (MTS3), which covered SQL, Python, Spark, and system design. - A techno-managerial round with a Senior Engineering Manager, where the focus was on system design and problem-solving. While the interviewers were knowledgeable and asked relevant questions, the lack of feedback from the HR team was disappointing. After the second round, I was told that the feedback was positive, but I never received any feedback on the third round. It's frustrating to invest so much time and effort into an interview process, only to be left in the dark about my performance. Advice to the company: Provide timely and constructive feedback to candidates, regardless of the outcome. This will help to improve the candidate experience and show that the company values the time and effort invested in the interview process.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Nielsen in Nov 2024

      Interview

      Recruiter kept calling regarding confirmation for the interview since morning . When asked for meeting link he said "I will check with manager and let you know" After multiple mails and continuous call nobody showed up at the interview . The recruiter also got unreachable when the interview timeslot came . Stared at the screen for 45min hoping someone would join then dropped from the call. Zero professionalism . Don't apply ever!
