Entrevista
Referred/Recruited through an internal Senior Executive at Gartner to interview for this role. Gartners’ internal hiring/business process is the-epitome of arrogance, ignorance incompetence. If their hiring process is any indicator of the companies deliverables to clients then short this stock. Their processes as I experienced it, is the definition of a dysfunctional business model. After speaking with 2 senior executives at Gartner and gaining their concurrence that I was a “good fit” for the role, the hiring process stopped for 2 months. No communication from any one at Gartner as to the status of the position or next steps in the process. After reaching out to my contacts to inquire about the status of the role, I was supplied with excuses such as “The Hiring Executive was on Vacation” and “the hiring Executive will follow up with you shortly “ again no communication. E mails to said hiring executive were not returned or even acknowledged. As a seasoned professional in the consulting industry I have never experienced such a complete lack of professionalism. Given my experience/treatment, I will be very un likely to recommend current and future clients to engage with, purchase or attend Gartner Events/conferences. As any executive operating in the Professional Services/Consulting world is aware, ours is a very small universe, An organizations actions and lack of professionalism can and will have ramifications.

Participated in a panel interview with 4 team members from Gartner who did a role play as if they were a client and I was analyzing the current problems the client was facing and providing recommendations and helping the client move forward. The overall experience was quite similar to real-world situations, and was a good opportunity to show the interviewers how I would handle difficult questions and challenging situations with top tier clients.

After the role-play I was asked to reflect on how it went, what went well, and areas I would consider addressing differently.
Very efficient and streamlined process. Went from initial phone screen to large panel interview within 3 weeks. Was offered 2 days after panel. One of the fastest processes I've witnessed

It was a panel interview via a mock scenario. Each person played a fictitious executive role and I had to organize and manage the session.

Entrevista
Recruiter contact, then recruiter screening, then phone interview with hiring manager, then with at least one potential peer who reports to the hiring manager, then with someone the hiring manager reports to. Afterwards, a visit to an office for an in-person, in-depth evaluation as though you're in the role and given access to tools and techniques. (This, in professional HR lingo is a "behavioral interview".) If that goes well you then speak with the Partner in whose business this role operates. (After all, it's *their* money that becomes your salary.) If you pass the Partner's "smell test" then an offer is made.
However, at one point in the interview workflow something very unprofessional happened that really made me question just how competent a company they were. A long track-record of profit, success, and stock growth is nothing to sneeze at. I also know several people who work for the company and are very happy with their careers. Nonetheless, I was strongly turned off by a clear break-down in their processes that I feel lucky that it happened and was not moved forward. It made me think they are not as transparent internally and not as forthcoming in their recruiting as they want people to believe they are. There was something extremely fishy about how things played out. The timing, the wording, the complete contradictory nature of it made no sense at all. I feel I dodged a bullet. I wish I could lay out exactly what happened but that would risk losing the anonymity of the review.

The job requires a lot of context switching. How do you deal with that?
