Pearson

How to Get Hired at Pearson

• Pearson is a 180-year-old British company that has divested publishing (Penguin Random House 2017, Financial Times 2015) to become a pure-play education company, and is now mid-transformation into a digital-first EdTech business under CEO Omar Abbosh (January 2024-).
• The company runs on Workday for recruiting — expect a structured multi-stage process with a recruiter screen, hiring manager interview, 2-4 panel rounds, and occasional assessments, typically spanning 3-6 weeks end to end.
