I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Gartner (Arlington, VA) in May 2009
Interview
I was contacted by a recruiter who asked a few basic questions about my business development experience, then sent me a timed personality test. I think it was about 30 mins long. A couple of days later she contacted me to say I was a good fit for the company and we set the interview date for about a month later.
The interview itself was casual with run of the mill questions about sales prowess, why Gartner, previous work experience challenges and my expectations of the position I was interviewing for.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about your roles and responsibilities at your previous job
I applied online. I interviewed at Gartner (Istanbul)
Interview
It was very professional and clear. A little bit longer then expected. HR is quite professional and dedicated to find best candidates step by step.. there are 4 different sessions and every session is challenging.
I applied through other source. I interviewed at Gartner (Barcelona) in Mar 2026
Interview
I was contacted by a Gartner GBS recruiter via LinkedIn. We scheduled a screening call where the role was mainly pitched to me and I was asked basic questions about my current responsibilities in relation to the job description.
I was told I would move to the next stage, but I never received the calendar invite by email. When I joined the meeting, I was informed the interview could not take place because I had not accepted the invite. After checking, we discovered the invite had been sent to the wrong email address.
We rescheduled. Before the next interview, I received a document with detailed instructions on how to answer (STAR format). The recruiter also emphasized how important feedback is, in both directions. I did not progress after the second interview. I requested feedback to understand the gaps, but the recruiter never responded.
Summary: Clear role overview, but basic coordination errors and a lack of follow-up feedback despite stating it was a priority.
