Candidatei-me online. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Gartner.
Entrevista
This would be a great opportunity for a bachelor or master in economics, but not a Ph.D. as I outline below. Please read this in its entirety as my negative comments may not be applicable to most situations and this is a good company for many career paths.
I applied online and was contacted very quickly to set up an interview. The posting indicated that a Ph.D. in a relevant field was desired and I am an economics Ph.D. During the interview, it became pretty clear that the work I would be doing was not Ph.D.-level work. The interviewer seemed to think that a Ph.D. was just a sharper, more in-depth bachelor's or master's degree, which any Ph.D. knows is not the case. A Ph.D. is fundamentally different and is about producing knowledge, not absorbing and applying it.
I withdrew after a salary conversation convinced me that I would not be doing Ph.D.-level work at CEB. Had I wanted to proceed, the interviewer seemed positive enough about my abilities that would not be surprised to receive an offer.
There may be good opportunities for economics Ph.D.'s here, but this evidently was not one of them. It could be just that the interviewer did not know what a Ph.D. is all about. For someone with a bachelor's or master's degree, this really would be a great place to work, but if you have a Ph.D. and want to use it, this is certainly not the place, unless my situation was specific to this interviewer.

they mainly asked HR questions, very simple, nothing technical. Mostly about past work and internships and how we contributed. Overall, easy to crack. However, the shortlisting in campus placement is through case studies wherein students are selected randomly

Candidatei-me por meio de recrutador(a). O processo levou 3 semanas. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Gartner.
Entrevista
I was contacted by a recruiter, I sent my resume, we set up phone call, the recruiter shared my resume with staff, heard back a few days later and we set up an in-person interview. The interview was three hours, split into 3 one-on-one sessions: behavioral, case study, and intellectual exercise. Everyone I met was very nice and friendly, but overall I found the experience a little off-putting- there was never any discussion of the job itself and what it actually entailed, and also not a lot of discussion about my background or experience. I was also put off by the repeated question of 'why did you apply here', when they should have been able to see I was contacted by a recruiter- interviews are a two way street, you need to also convince the applicant (especially if you are recruiting them!) and I was not convinced. I also never heard back, which overall was fine because I was not interested in the position and it wasn't a good fit, but I thought that was a little rude considering all the pre-interview communication.
