      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at GLG (London, England) in Oct 2016

      Interview

      Applied online, had a screening interview with HR who was lovely and set up an in person interview with the hiring managers. In person interview was two stages with basic behavioural and role specific questions. One word of advice, make sure you understand what sets GLG apart from their competitors.

      Interview questions [3]

      Question 1

      Why GLG? What do you know about us? What's our product? Basic stuff that you should know for any job - if you don't demonstrate this you probably won't get the job as they want to ensure you will be a good fit
      Answer question

      Question 2

      Behavioural questions about how I would interact with the team and clients
      Answer question

      Question 3

      Situational questions about how I would deal with a particular client who is looking to understand X product that's being launched for example
      Answer question

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at GLG in Apr 2024

      Interview

      There was an HR screener over the phone which was pretty straightforward. Asking me about my research experience and why GLG. Then I landed a first interview which I thought went pretty well! I thought me and the guy got along, it was an engaging conversation. Next steps were to be a case study interview and a final interview. And then I got GHOSTED. There was zero response whatsoever. This was 3 weeks ago, and I still haven't heard back.

      Question 1

      Why would someone want to sit next to you at work? Why do you want to work for GLG?

      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at GLG

      Interview

      5 rounds in total. First with an agency recruiter, second with GLG staff which involves a mandatory second language assessment otherwise they wouldn't be interested in hiring you. I spoke to the team leader and a colleague who appreciated my past experiences and skills. Consequently, in the fourth round, you are required to perform a case study for them which takes 1:30h. You are being assured that there is no wrong or right answer but the goal is to establish your reasoning and thinking. After, completing the case study they decided not to move forward with my application because of the lack of quality that went into it. For the case study, you are allowed 1 hour to provide a list of experts containing names, positions, and company that can answer or advise to the following question - A client (laptop manufacturer) approaches GLG asking them for advice on the current trend in laptop sales. I executed by researching prominent experts in the industry with 17 names and 2 alternative companies who specialize in market research and included my reasoning for my choices. The interviewer also asks you to rank yourself from 1-10 on your performance. Even though they assure that there is no right or wrong answer they already have a certain way of doing things and your way of thinking or researching may not be acceptable. Hope this helps to anyone that is planning to interview or who are in the latter stages of their interview with this company. Good luck.
