I applied online. I interviewed at Gartner (Weatherford, TX) in Jul 2024
Interview
I only made it through 2 rounds. A quick phone interview and then a longer 1 hour phone interview. I was not asked to join a zoom, but she (the recruiter) was on zo for me to see. She was pleasant to work with and kind! Once she realized I was not interested in a sales position and how my experience was more in the Customer Success department - she didn’t waste any more time and gave me the details to reach out to the recruiter for those openings and where to apply for them and the titles of those job postings. I also did have to take a cognitive test after the first phone interview, prior to getting the green light for the next interview. I believe she told me that Gartner was voted one of the hardest places to interview at in 2023 as #13 on the list for Forbes or Fortune 500 magazine. (Fact check that because I don’t remember what publication it was).

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Gartner
Interview
It was okay. Two interviews, phone call and zoom. Zoom was a bit weird all very feedback approached. Had to do a role play of a cold call, which I do everyday to someone who has no cold calling experience so not sure that’s the best judge

Question 1
How do you think you are doing - half way through the interview
First round HR screening. Second round detailed personality analysis interview. Third round manager interview to ask about experience and motivations. Last round panel interview with presentation to describe why you're a good fit. Strong emphasis on personality fit.
They have reached out to me for a job every year and I have interviewed with them 2 times and have never made it past the 1st interview. Confused why a recruiter reaches out to me anymore?
