      Market Research Associate Interview

      6 Jun 2013
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at The NPD Group

      Interview

      I had emailed a recruiter after my friend that was working at the company had recommended me to the hiring manager. I was excited to work at the same company that had been publishing excellent research and had exposure to Fortune 500 clients. I accepted a phone interview, however I was rudely awakened when I realized that the recruiter started the call by screaming at me and telling me to hurry up. I have completed several interviews, either phone, Skype, or in person, and I have never been treated so rudely in any of those situations. I was so shocked that I played along,but I ended up obviously not doing well because I felt I was being personally attacked.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      The most difficult part was when the interviewer started yelling at me and making snide comments at my answers such as, "I asked you a yes or no question. Clearly you cannot follow instructions."

      Market Research Associate Interview

      8 Apr 2014
      Anonymous interview candidate

      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at The NPD Group in Mar 2014

      Interview

      Similar to the other interviews, I had an initial phone screening from a New York recruiter after sending my resume in. I was told I would receive a follow up later that day or the next day to schedule the second round of interviews. I never received a follow up. After 3-4 days I emailed the recruiter, and was told she would be in touch with me as soon as she had more direction. It’s been over 3 weeks, and I still haven't received a response.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      No difficult questions. Just a more detailed look at my background, and questions on how strong my analytical skills are.

      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at The NPD Group in Sept 2011

      Interview

      Two weeks after submitting application, did a phone interview that was relatively straightforward. Then did in-person interview with three different people. The first one was ok, the second one was through videoconference which was ok, but the third guy was just weird and appeared disinterested the whole time.
