The selection process at Bending Spoons was an intense yet stimulating challenge that took about two months overall. Although I was slightly nervous going in, everyone—from the recruiters to the interviewers—was reassuring and friendly, and my insecurities were soon gone. All the steps I went through were perfectly documented and explained before advancing to the next, so I knew what to expect at each stage! After passing a screening phase, I underwent some online tests and advanced to the interviews. Three rounds of interviews later, I was asked to share a few people whom I worked or studied with that would be able to give some insights on me. All in all, the process wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be: being driven, honest, and clear-minded were the main aspects that I think helped me.

I was sent two batches of tasks (eight tasks in total, mainly logic) to complete in my own time, and after that I had three rounds of interviews with different people, during which we talked about the role, my experience, expectations and how we would fit, plus some more logic tasks. The process was time-consuming but exciting and everyone involved was very helpful and kind.
