I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Gartner (Irving, TX)
Interview
Multiple Interview Rounds
1. Call with recruiter: Questions on background, why sales, walk through resume, etc., sends email with information to prepare you for next interview
2. Teams meeting with another recruiter: STAAR behavioral questions, why sales, Gartner knowledge, why you, explains more about the company/role/next steps in the process
3. Teams meeting with hiring manager, I think?? Cold call roleplay

Question 1
Gartner definitions, sales cycle, what sets Gartner apart from others? (looking for very specific answers)
It was a quick phone screening that had behavioral questions. It went over questions that were related to me and saw how I reacted to them. It brought forth some challenging questions that need the star method.
