I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Gartner in Sep 2024
Interview
Gartner takes the cherry on the cake for companies wasting people’s time with interviewing and then disappearing. First they contacted me about one role, made it to the second stage and then both recruiters vanished. I then got contacted by a different recruiter for a different role months down the track which makes me assume already the turnover rate is high as the chances of hearing back from a job months in is unlikely, recruiter was condescending and blunt and I chose not to go ahead With another interview purely because they wasted my time from the get go and I can’t imagine they would be any different moving forward…. Their recruitment process is robotic and unnecessary, for 85k no one should be wasting over 4 hours with 6 different people, definitely not a company I would consider working for judging from their recruitment process it’s already looking very bleak.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Gartner (Stamford, CT) in Oct 2024
Interview
I was supposed to interview with a Senior Recruiter at Gartner for a Sr. CSM role, but our interview was postponed 5 times spanning over 3 weeks just to then be cancelled. Each time the interview was moved without any explanation, and usually 15 mins to an hour before. I moved my schedule around each time to accommodate, only to be left disappointed. I have been admiring Gartner for a while and was so excited to finally have the opportunity to interview, and I never even got to speak to anyone. The recruiter told me someone was hired for the role so our call (6th time scheduled) was cancelled. The craziest part is that I was referred by an Internal employee - such a bad candidate experience. Super disappointed and disheartened.
