I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Gartner (London, England) in Nov 2025
Interview
4 stages. Pretty rigorous but your supported throughout by the recruiter who spends time to prep with you for each stage and go through feedback. One of the main thing they're looking for is how receptive you are to feedback and are you a quick learner. Best interview process I've been through in terms of clarity, support and time to receive offer.

Question 1
3 reasons why you want to be in Sales and 3 reasons you want to work for Gartner.
They have reached out to me for a job every year and I have interviewed with them 2 times and have never made it past the 1st interview. Confused why a recruiter reaches out to me anymore?
It was long and rigorous, often feeling extremely high pressure, with not a lot of constructive criticism. There are 5 rounds and each with a role-play. It's safe to say this is not an easy interview process. I'm not sure how they do their prospecting, but I was apparently a 'great fit' for the role - didn't show that enthusiasm during our calls.
Intensive - multiple rounds led by a recruiter. Expect 2 rounds of role play, around 4 rounds total. 2 with a recruiter, one with a lead skills expert and another panel with VPs and hiring managers.
