Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 2 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Gartner (Barcellona) nel mese di feb 2025
Colloquio
I applied through LinkedIn.
The first interview was a 20-minute phone call — really easy and casual. The recruiter explained the position to me, and everything felt straightforward.
But the second interview was a bit strange. They sent me an email with some PDFs to prepare, but the info was for the SDR role, not the Account Executive position I applied for.
During the interview, it felt very robotic. The recruiter was writing down everything I said, and whenever she missed something, she asked me to repeat myself so she could take notes. When I mentioned the Account Executive role, she said we were actually interviewing for the SDR position and that I should have noticed that in the documents.
It was confusing because I never applied for SDR, and in the first interview, she had clearly explained the AE role to me.
Domande di colloquio [1]
Domanda 1
Why sales? Why Gartner? Time you had a difficult client situation (using STAR method). Another question was about what I think would be the most challenging part of selling a service like Gartner’s. I explained that it’s harder to show the value upfront because it’s not a physical product, so you have to really understand the client’s needs and be able to communicate how the service will solve their problems.
Intensive - multiple rounds led by a recruiter. Expect 2 rounds of role play, around 4 rounds total. 2 with a recruiter, one with a lead skills expert and another panel with VPs and hiring managers.

HR is very accommodating and helpful through the whole process. It can be a little confusing how they structure and and label their position but easily cleared up when talking in first rounds. They are professional and get back quickly. Overall a very positive experience.
