I applied through other source. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Forrester (London, England) in April 2015.
Interview
Brilliant communication during the process. I was very well looked after by the recruiter at Forrester Research and received relevant information to prepare for different stages of the interview process. The company was open to me asking questions about the process and preparation and ensured that I clearly understood the presentation task.
