I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Gallup in Oct 2012
Interview
Scheduling the phone interview is very straight forward. You call the number given in the email and they give you a date and time for a phone interview. It will be a behavior interview with questions similar to those on the survey you took for the application. They may asked you to be a little more specific and give examples, so use the STAR approach (Situation, Task, Action, Result). Please remember it is by phone so do not ramble and get straight to the point of example).
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The most difficult part of the survey is the interviewer is trained not to give any verbal cues so you have no clue if your answers are good or not. This is a little frustrating when done over the phone- which is exactly the point of the phone interview.
I believe one of my most difficult questions was something to the effect of how do you know if you are a good leader?
Another question is Would you rather sell to a lot of clients for small amounts or one big client for a big amount?
The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Gallup (New York, NY) in Feb 2016
Interview
Same as stated before. Read about the products and have prepared an explanation of your favorite management style (think strengths based development). The questions are rapid fire, I would suggest not even preparing and wasting your time. Just let it flow and hope you fit the mold!

Question 1
Salary range was one of the first questions, even though they allegedly have a merit based pay system
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Gallup (San Francisco, CA) in Jan 2016
Interview
Online application and personality screening, two phone interviews. Wide variety of non-personal questions, nothing to do with background or job related skills. They wanted a quick pace decisions and would not clarify questions. Person interviewing was very professional. The process was slightly frustrating because I was not familiar with the format.

Question 1
Have you help someone in the last 24 hours? If yes, describe.

Do like to be alone? When alone what do you think about?

Do you think people should be paid based upon seniority or productivity?
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Gallup (London, England) in Sep 2015
Interview
Initial applied via the web with an extensive 20min online behavioral type interview. As others have stated the after receiving a letter acknowledgment of moving to their next step in interview process, a phone interview is scheduled. The phone interview is basically an enhanced version or continuation of their online interview with more of scenario type questions and self personality type questions. The interviewer is reading scripted questions which they have some formulaic method for gauging responses if one would be a good fit for that role and/or more or less for their company culture. Nothing about the position or the company nor any opportunity to ask any questions. Completed interview and questioned whether I'd really want to work there and to be honest, didnt feel it would be a good match for me personally.
