I applied online. I interviewed at Gartner (Egham, England) in Sep 2010
Interview
Complex and drawn out process involving coordinating the diaries of multiple individuals. HR in EMEA is clearly at the mercy of the spreadsheet jockeys in the US, who have been known to veto a lengthy interview process at the final stage because of the impact it will have on departmental performance metrics. Suffice to say many applicants are displeased to have their time wasted in this manner - but patience and tolerance will be rewarded as you could get a second chance and this is a great company to work for

Question 1
My research and analytical capabilities across multiple sources to create a triangulated solution to a given problem.
Interview experience was terrible. Interviewer arrived two hours late, wasted my time, and only revealed at the end that the role didn’t even exist. Completely unprofessional and frustrating for candidates.
Lengthy multiple phase interview which included a typical job interview followed by a business case.
The questions were mostly personal with a strong focus on fit and feeling out how much of a grinder you are.
The business case was quite hard (it was on the education sector, weird) and I had to develop a single slide solution a very short space of time on a very rubbish laptop.
All in all - the whole process seemed design to fail people not pass them.
