Difficult Interview
Application
I applied online. I interviewed at Gartner (Fort Myers, FL (US)).
Interview
The process for me took a little over a month for interviewing, I had three interviews and preparation phone calls from my recruiter before each interview. I was given a lot of material to go over for each interview. If you are not in the IT industry it can be intimidating, as Gartner is a complex corporation with a new acquisition that is more business industry related. The last interview included a meeting with another employee in the EAS role, I did research the young lady I was suppose to be with but was surprised when I sat with a different team member but not a big deal just felt a little unprepared yet she actually gave me some great advice and tips. Next was a "White Board Presentation" with VP and manager. That was nerve racking, but I just did my best and when I didn't know the answer I was honest and instead of giving me the answer VP probed me with questions so I could get to the answer myself, which I usually ended up knowing but I think my nerves had seriously set in at that point. Next was a role play phone call, again difficult but I believe they put you under pressure to see how you react and take direction. I seemed to have done well because I received an offer. Oh yea I also had my name tag stuck to my hair which the manager kindly pointed out, I just made a joke and moved on! Very difficult but well worth it, made me have more appreciation for the process and overall acceptance of offer.
