The phone interviews are basically an extension of the questionnaire you complete when you apply. You are expected to give examples of when you've used a specific trait in your work. Due to the way they ask the questions, and how they're required to ask them, if you say yes, pause. After you say yes, they will then ask you to describe a time. If you just go into an explanation, they will stop you and have you repeat it.

Interviewed Aug 2011 (took 1 week)
Gallup representative asked a series of questions and did not provide any feedback on responses. It is an awkward process but really pushes you to just give honest answers off the cuff. Thinking on your feet is great but your best bet here is to just be yourself and they will know if you are a good fit or not.

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Dubai (United Arab Emirates) (took 4 weeks)
The process was really very easy and simple. The normal online application process + Psychometric test. The test aims to identify your strengths. If your strengths match their profile, you will be contacted to arrange for a phone interview. I got contacted within 5 working days of my online application to schedule a phone interview. I did 2 of them. The phone interviews include similar questions to those of the psychometric test (but more thorough) + very few generic questions about your technical skills. After 2 interviews i recieved a notification email that was not succesful. By the way, i compiled a list of all the questions posted here by all reviweres and I would say 85% of the questions came from that list. I highly recommend you review all the questions posted on this website and prepare as you are required to set examples and describe, the normal STAR interviewing thing. Overall the interview was average.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Chicago, IL (took a day)
After an online personality test, they called and asked to set up a phone interview. They were so understaffed that It took 3 attempts for me to call and actually set up an appointment. The phone interview was very similar to the online personality test other than the fact that it was live.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Atlanta, GA (took 3 weeks)
Applied online and took 45 minute personality / aptitude test. Test consisted of multiple rapid fire questions about self perception, self awareness, how others view you, how you rate yourself on various topics intelligence, drive, competitiveness, work ethic, values, integrity, etc. Too many questions to try and game the results, best to be honest and use the test as a tool for self analysis.
Two weeks later recv'd email and follow up phone call to schedule a one on one phone interview with a Gallup talent associate. Phone interview lasted 45 minutes. Very similar to the personality test but combined typical behavioral questions and very specific opinion based q's. Associate was very polite and nice, only allowed to repeat the Q, no other commentary once interview was underway. After it ended associate stated that I would be contacted regarding the next step within 5-10 days.

Interviewed Nov 2011 (took 4 days)
online assessment of talents plus telephone interview.
One question "Do you enjoy cynical people" was hard to interpret. Like, to work with? To listen to on the radio?

Interviewed Aug 2011 (took 2+ months)
This is one of the longest interview processes Ive been through. The process is based completely on your talents. I recommend taking a hard look at yourself, look at behavioral interview type questions and develop honest, concise answers if you plan on preparing. Honesty is key.

Interviewed Jul 2011 in Chicago, IL (took 2 months)
The process consisted of 1 online personality test to see if I was a good match for the company. Then a first round phone interview was set up. It was a very rapid fire, scripted interview process with no room to ask questions that lasted 30 min. You must interpret the questions as you see them. After that I had a second phone interview scheduled a month later. This one lasted an hour and was more rapid fire questions. Finally, 3 weeks after that I got an email saying they would not be able to fully make use of my skills.
