I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at GfK in Oct 2017
Interview
6 rounds of interview from analysts to MDs.
The team members target 3 main sections in the interview:
1. Character in order to observe if you are a good fit with the team
2. Analytical minds in order to observe if you have analytical skills on companies, products, and management
3. Technical skills in order to observe if you have the software skills to do data analysis
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
With the time-series of sales data presented, what's the takeaways from these information?
Given an dataset exercise with minimal directions, need to come up with an answer with own qualitative and quantitative research. The exercise itself is not the most difficult, but writing the report and being able to share the report is hard.
I applied online. I interviewed at GfK (Taipei) in Sept 2020
Interview
Need to submit online report before face to face interview. Once passed the first round, need to do another online interview with team member outside the country. The online report is pretty tricky and requires some time to prepare.
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at GfK (Boston, MA) in Feb 2020
Interview
Painfully Long , interview process started in December of 2019 and just ended in Feburary of 2020. Had to take another offer, before they admitted they were just giving me the reach around. They will blatantly waste your time for months only to give you no answer on your status as a candidate.
