I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Pearson (Toronto, ON) in May 2015
Interview
There was no real interview process here. HR seemed lazy and just sent out a "questionnaire" instead which listed a bunch of interview questions. All of our communication was via email. Once I filled out the questionnaire, I was called in for an interview with the associate directors. About a week later, I was hired.

Question 1
The interview questions were the same ones from the questionnaire given by HR via email previously.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Pearson (Elk Grove, IL) in May 2015
Interview
Applied online and was contacted by a recruiter about a week later. Recruiter forgot to call me for initial scheduled phone screen, had to reschedule for the next day. The recruiter in general seemed to have little idea of what the position actually did on a daily basis, mostly talked about the company as a whole.
After the phone screen there was an in-person interview with two managers of the enrollment team

Question 1
Mostly questions based on previous admissions experience. They stressed that it was a very metric driven job that would be judged daily.
I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Pearson (Columbia, MD) in Apr 2014
Interview
First I received a virtual video request to record my answers and submit that by webcam.
I met with 2 mgrs. from the documents department, 2 mgrs. from associates department, and 2 mgrs. from the enrollment department. I was requested to write 2 different essays researching their company. I interviewed for the Enrollment Associate position and was declined because they felt I was over qualified in May. Received a follow-up in Jul offering employment as an Enrollment Advisor. They were hiring based on their best fit, and not the employees. If you are truly seeking a career consider different options. My references were not checked either they just keep it in a database.
