In-Depth Telephone Interview

Let's talk about your talents.

In an effort to understand your unique set of talents, and based on more than 30 years of research, we have developed an array of structured telephone interviews to align candidates with job opportunities at Gallup. Much like the online assessment, we designed these in-depth interviews to help us learn about the talents that come most naturally to you and how you have applied them in your life.

We will be assessing your fit for the role and your alignment with Gallup. It is our goal to find a position at Gallup where you can be successful and engaged in your work.

Invitation to interview with Gallup:

• If the information on your application and results from your online assessment warrant further consideration, you will receive an e-mail inviting you to proceed with a telephone interview.
• Please follow the instructions in that e-mail to schedule your telephone interview.
• The interviews vary in length, but usually take 30 to 60 minutes. Depending on the job you have applied for, we may ask you to complete more than one telephone interview.

On the day of your interview:

• Please find a quiet location where you can speak freely.
• Many candidates have found it helpful to reserve a conference room at their office or a study room at the library in which to conduct the interview.
• Using a landline phone greatly reduces the chance of a dropped call or static interfering with the interview; however, if you must use a cell phone, please do so in an area where the reception is clear.

Who is asking the questions?

A certified Gallup Talent Analyst will call you at the scheduled time to conduct your interview. We have an international team of analysts who have been employed at Gallup for an average of more than 13 years. Because we train our analysts to properly conduct and review the interviews, they know how to carefully listen to the answers you provide.

What happens next?

After the telephone interview is complete, the analyst will outline the next step in your interview process, which may be an additional telephone interview or an in-person interview with a hiring manager.
