Interview
I asked about what engagement/project I have done before in my previous employer. Also the interviewer asked about some project management details to check your capability. One old school question is ‘if you are an animal, what it will be and why?’.

Interview
Went through three rounds of interviews with positive feedback and then was completely ghosted. I had to follow up multiple times to get any updates then decided to withdraw my application after several weeks of having no concrete updates or movement. One of the worst interview experiences I've had in my career.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Nielsen (London, England) in Aug 2023

The interview was pretty standard for the industry. Typical questions involved previous role and projects. Some technical questions but mainly focussed on projects and delivery. The role was quite vague and when asked about this I didn't get much more specifics
