The first round was fairly informal and focuses mostly on your work history and aspirations for the future. They are keen to find out about how your history aligns with the job.

In an already terrible job market, I have truly never had the misfortune of coming across a company and internal recruiter that had such a complete disregard for a candidate. I completed a detailed task and presentation, which I submitted well before the deadline. When I asked for feedback and a date for when my final interview would be scheduled, I was ghosted for over a week. I chased for feedback and an update, I received generic feedback and a rejection. Nielsen have a complete disregard for prospective candidates despite positioning themselves as a leader within the market research space that claims to 'value their people'. Save yourself from applying here anyways, their communication is poor and salaries ridiculously below even what constitutes a living wage.
