      Human Resources Emerging Leaders Associate Interview

      19 Mar 2013
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Nielsen in Feb 2013

      Interview

      Part 1: Phone Screen- very straightforward. Why do you want to work here? Part 2: Phone Interview. All the normal questions, plus "Tell me about your most significant leadership experience, "What was your biggest learning moment in the past year", "What makes you uniquely qualified for this position"? Part 3: Invitational interview. Dinner with VPs the first night, 5 hour interview process the following day. 3, 1-hour interviews with one or two VPs. Luncheon with current ELAs. Present a Case Study to 2 members of the team. Case study was not technical, but be familiar with strategies for presenting cases. The day is exhausting, and you'll have to be on your game the whole time. I know they were looking for lots of teamwork and leadership experience, so throughout the interview process, I'd recommend really knowing what type of leader you are, and how you handle (or would handle) difficult situations and/or people.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      In general, the questions were tough but straightforward. The most challenging (for me): -Describe a situation where you dealt with diversity. -What does "Simple. Open. Integrated." mean to you? What would you critique about it? - Describe a time you worked in a team and members were not "leaning in".
