I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Gartner (New Delhi) in Dec 2017
Interview
Extremely lengthy and inconclusive process. The interview process spanned over a month and I went through:
1 initial HR screening,
5 rounds of case based interviews of 1 hour each
1 written case submission
1 20-minute logical reasoning test
and 3 psychometric tests.
Each of these rounds was an ELIMINATION round, so I am assuming I must have performed satisfactorily in the previous one to move ahead in the process. Following this, I was informed that the firm has decided not to proceed further with my candidature.
Not sure, what the evaluation criteria was, but the overall process was very exhaustive.

Interview
they mainly asked HR questions, very simple, nothing technical. Mostly about past work and internships and how we contributed. Overall, easy to crack. However, the shortlisting in campus placement is through case studies wherein students are selected randomly

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Gartner
Interview
I was contacted by a recruiter, I sent my resume, we set up phone call, the recruiter shared my resume with staff, heard back a few days later and we set up an in-person interview. The interview was three hours, split into 3 one-on-one sessions: behavioral, case study, and intellectual exercise. Everyone I met was very nice and friendly, but overall I found the experience a little off-putting- there was never any discussion of the job itself and what it actually entailed, and also not a lot of discussion about my background or experience. I was also put off by the repeated question of 'why did you apply here', when they should have been able to see I was contacted by a recruiter- interviews are a two way street, you need to also convince the applicant (especially if you are recruiting them!) and I was not convinced. I also never heard back, which overall was fine because I was not interested in the position and it wasn't a good fit, but I thought that was a little rude considering all the pre-interview communication.
