I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Mercer in Oct 2012
Interview
They came to my school's career fair, and I had a great conversation with one of the recruiters there. I also applied on my school's career recruitment website. They invited me to interview on campus. I had one half-hour interview. The questions focused on analytical experience (Excel), teamwork experience, and experience doing due diligence. I had great vibes from this interview but did not hear back for a few weeks. After inquiring about my status, I received an email saying I would not be moving on in the process. I asked my interviewer for feedback, and he suggested I build more analytical (Excel) experience.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Mercer in Aug 2021
Interview
I did one phone screening with HR. I did a phone call with a Sourcer. I did a video interview with a manager. I did four more separate interviews with the team, some with two people and some with one person. I waited two weeks for a response and heard nothing. The sourcer got back to me and wanted to me to meet with another THREE people. I declined as they obviously did not respect the applicants time in having me wait weeks for a response and spend significant time interviewing with multiple people. This would be meeting a total of 10 people over a two month period for an entry level role. Very bad interview process and experience!
