Entrevista
A very long and thorough interview process for a position as an Analyst for Forrester Research. It is clear that they take great care in hiring for these positions and while it was a long and tough process it does give you a very good idea of what to expect from the job. Process as follows:
1. Initial HR screening interview.
2. Interview with the hiring Research Director.
3. Interviews with 4 members of the team I was joining.
4. You then prepare some research report ideas and agree a topic with the hiring manager.
5. You then have about a week to write a short research report (c 6 pages). You go through a feedback round.
6. Finally you present to a group of 10-15 people from across the organisation for about half an hour with questions to answer about your research paper.
By the end of this you have a really good idea of what the job entails and what your line manager would be like to work for. While a demanding process I found the tasks quite interesting and enjoyed meeting the team. The feedback and the process was very professional and I look forward to starting in a few months time.

Entrevista
I received a first interview invitation a few days after I have applied for the position. The recruiter spent 15 minutes talking about another position at Forrester until realizing it was not the same one I have applied for. After emailing the recruiter twice about the second interview as we spoke about in the first one, no rely was received and I found out I was no longer a candidate by looking it up via their recruitment portal.
Overall, extremely unprofessional HR.
The interview process can last several months with many rounds of interviews. Many different stakeholders are involved. Involved writing and presenting research findings on a preselected topic. The process is designed to ensure that the best talent is getting through - and therefore is appropriate.

Entrevista
I had a series of 1:1 discussions with manager, peers, and other people on the research team over a few weeks. The discussions were generally informal but some difficult questions were asked that required a lot of on-the-spot knowledge and recall. Overall not a stressful interview effort.
