I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Ipsos (Hong Kong) in Feb 2021
Interview
Horrible experience. They were just phishing to find out more info about their competitors and also get free ideas on how to improve their revenues because they were struggling and had no clue what to do.

Question 1
Can you give a few ideas how to increase our revenue for this department?
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Ipsos (Singapore) in Jun 2024
Interview
First and HR round which is not up to the mark. Had applied through an employee, so felt that it was just a formality being completed. Interview went very well but it was rejected.
No substantial reason was given for rejection, it felt like they are just interviewing for the sake of interview. Overall the experience was not good.
At a senior level, it is more of skills and very doubtful how an HR can judge the research skills.
The HR was in a hurry and seemed to be not interested.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Ipsos (New York, NY) in Aug 2022
Interview
Had an initial call with a Director who ran through the expectations for the job and asked me some process-driven questions. Very professional interviewer, standard questions focused on resume points.
