      Program Coordinator Interview

      15 Sept 2017
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Cambridge, MA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Forrester (Cambridge, MA) in Sept 2017

      Interview

      I was contacted for a phone interview after I submitted an application online. I spoke for 30 minutes with the recruiter and then went in for a two hour interview in person. I thought it went well. The recruiter still hasn't gotten back to me after I sent her multiple emails asking for an update on the position. Just outright rude. When someone takes almost three hours out of their day to come in and interview, they deserve a response. So unprofessional. I even accepted an offer at another company for higher salary but felt the need to write this review because the interview process was awful. For a company like Forrester... I expected better.

      Program Coordinator Interview

      18 Oct 2019
      Anonymous employee
      Boston, MA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Forrester (Boston, MA) in Feb 2019

      Interview

      Extremely easy! First is a 30-min phone interview with the recruiting manager to establish alignment on the role and compensation with basic interview questions. After that you'll have 1-2 30-min phone interviews with your potential managers that will ask about certain competencies and review your resume. All going well, you'll be invited to a half-day interview with about 5 people in 30-min intervals. The questions will focus around the competencies required for the role and assess your critical thinking skills. And finally, there is an application exercise.

      Program Coordinator Interview

      3 Apr 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Forrester

      Interview

      I am extremely disappointed in Forrester. I was contacted by a Talent Acquisition Specialist for a phone interview via email. The day of the interview twenty-five minutes go by and the phone doesn't ring. I send an email to the Talent Acquisition Specialist and she replies an hour and twenty something minutes later, saying that the position has been filled. This was very unprofessional and inconsiderate. She could have called and inform me that the position had been filled. I had cleared things out of my day, and spent time preparing for this phone interview for nothing. My time was disrespected and that isn't acceptable. I really hope that Forrester is aware of this, and holds Talent Acquisition Specialists that do this accountable.
