There was 5 rounds of interview which took the whole day.
They said will respond in a week. But the total process took up-to 2 months.
They will ask you really unrelated topics and questions that you can't answer clearly just to test your confidence.

I applied online. I interviewed at Gartner in Oct 2025
Interview
I interviewed with Gartner twice for two different software engineering roles. During my initial interview for the second role, I spoke with the same recruiter I had met during my first application. Both experiences were pretty underwhelming.
In the first call kept their camera off the entire time, and the conversation only lasted about ten minutes. It felt rushed and a bit impersonal. When I applied again for a different role a few months later, I had a similar experience where the recruiter didn’t seem very engaged or interested in the conversation.
The process felt unorganized and lacked communication.
