I interviewed at Gartner (Egham, England) in Mar 2013
Interview
1st interview with Hr, then the 2 nd is more detailed going into traits which Gartner look for requiring demonstration of said traits. 3 rd interview face to face with 2 manager. Again, more demonstration of traits which becomes tedious and boring. They do not want to hear you can do job and that you are more able than they are. Choose scenarios and try not to tell the truth because the truth often reveals our true aspirations which are generally over and above these Area Manager. 3 rd interview - panel and role play. Just go in with the mentality that this is a sales situation and behave as such. They want to see you demonstration objection handling, difficult clients.
Interview had 3 stages. the last one with your VP, you had to roleplay. Recruitment will prepare you thoroughly for the process. With some prep it is doable. very generic,
