I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Gartner (Chicago, IL) in Sept 2015
Interview
Pretty straight forward. I was contacted by the Regional Manager from my LinkedIn profile. Spent an hour on the phone with him and then was scheduled for an HR interview. HR guy was a no show. claimed it was on the wrong schedule. Finally talked with him the following week. Straight forward, but not very well done. This is what happens when you allow HR recruiters to help select Account Executives. I would not wast any more time with him after he asled for all of my W2 info going back 3 years. Really none of his business, and has really nothing to do with how I would have been a fit with Gartner
