Unilever Research Associate interview questions

Good very supportive, 5 people panel, very structured and honest approach. They genuinely want to hire good candidates and wiling to go the extra mile for that. Very good experience. They are not there to show that they are better than you but interested in you and what you know.

I received word from a friend about an opening at HUL's Bangalore R&D Centre and was asked to forward my resume. Once I was shortlisted for the interview, my first round was telephonic, and I was asked some technical questions revolving around research I had conducted as a student. Subsequently I received communication from HR asking me to come down to Bangalore for a second round with senior management. Communication from everyone at the company was, as expected, professional and polite at all times. Follow-ups over e-mail and phone were continuous. Only one glitch was that the on-site interview was cancelled once at the last moment and scheduled for the next day, which I later got to know was a communication failure from the HR. The second round interview was also good. This time they asked questions which tested research acumen and technical knowledge both, with a few hypothetical situation based questions, which also demanded to be answered with a reasonable level of quantitative accuracy.
