Technical Case Presentation Behavioral
So at Ipsos, first you'll chat with a recruiter over the phone, then there are online tests covering aptitude, skills, and cognitive abilities. After that, it's usually an in-person or video interview where you might do case studies or give presentations. They really want to know why you're into market research, if you have the right technical skills like SQL and Python, and basically if you'd be a good fit. The exact steps can change depending on the job, but they always check your analytical skills, how you handle things, and if you know your stuff for the specific role.

Case Presentation Behavioral
The interview process overall was a great experience and very responsive. Communication was clear and timely at every stage. I was given a case study and asked to present my analysis, which allowed me to demonstrate both technical and presentation skills. The team was professional, supportive, and asked thoughtful questions, making the entire process engaging and insightful.

Technical Group Behavioral
It was a long online test that covered logic, attention to detail, personality, translation, stats, and a group interview. I talked with HR and my potential manager. The questions were super relevant to the job, and the staff were really professional. But honestly, it felt like they didn't screen people well before inviting them, so it ended up feeling like a waste of time.
