I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Gartner
Interview
Two rounds of interviews each an hour in length. THe first round was more about using the STAR method to answer behavioral questions. The second round included one or two behavioral questions but mainly revolved around how well you know Gartner, why you want to do sales, and a 5 minute sales call roleplay.

I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Gartner (Dallas, TX) in Aug 2024
Interview
Interview process is pretty straightforward. Includes a preliminary call and then an hour zoom meeting. For the sales internship, you will be asked many questions about your "Why". As a college student, I did not know my "Why" and spent the majority of the hour expressing that I am a college student who has some defined goals, but does not have a strong structured plan for the next 30 years. Eventually, I discussed that this was not working for either of us and the interview ended shorlty after that.

There are several interviews through the process. The final interview consists on some personal questions, such as: Why sales? Why Gartner? What drives you?, then some situational questions that must be answered using the STAR method, and finally there is a roleplay.
