Domande di colloquio presso Bending Spoons

Ho fatto due serie di test. La prima l'ho passata, mentre la seconda era composta da due parti: un test logico in una piattaforma esterna e altri test dell'azienda. Non è andata bene la seconda volta perché c'è stato chi ha fatto meglio di me. Ho apprezzato molto la disponibilità di chi mi ha scritto e il processo assolutamente meritocratico.

The interview process requires you to solve 7 assessments (30 mins each) which comprises of various comprehensive and analytics questions. Following which is a technical test and then the interviews This is all that I have to say but I don't know why Glassdoor has put a min, word limit of 30

The recruiting process was made up of different stages: CV and cover letter, several interviews (some of which were linked to the specific position) and test assessments. The process was very logical, linked to the specific job offer and assessing the required skills. The team always stayed in touch with the candidate, informing them of the next steps and responding in a timely manner.

Se si passa lo screening dei CV si devono superare dei test logico-matematici abbastanza complessi, consiglio di prepararsi per bene e studiare molto per tentare di superarli, soprattutto se non avete mai studiato statistica.

Helpful and friendly recruiter. Feedback is given in a timely manner regardless of restuls. The tests and problems recquire quite a bit of time due the quantity and difficulty, but enough time is given to complete them and there seems to be a way to extend that period.

Una serie di test di logica iniziali, molto divertenti, seguiti da prove tecniche di programmazione base. A seguire dei colloqui conoscitivi e poi più tecnici. Non ho proseguito la selezione, dopo il primo colloquio, in quanto ho ricevuto un'offerta da un'altra azienda.

Buongiorno, Faccio i complimenti a questa azienda per il loro modo di fare recruiting, hanno un approccio informale mantenendo molto salde le caratteristiche di serietà e professionalità, veloci a valutare e (cosa molto rara) a inviare un feedback al candidato per motivare la loro scelta, nel mio caso negativa. Molto sinceri e onesti nella valutazione e test molto ben strutturati e divertenti atti a valutare in tante sfaccettature il candidato. Merita davvero il premio di Great Place to work per il modo di fare l'azienda e interessandosi alle persone, sia quelle che ci lavorano e sia quelle che vorrebbero lavorarci. Grazie ancora per la bella esperienza molto stimolante.

I applied in April for a six month contract position and started in September. The interview process was long especially for a short-term position. I completed an 8-hour online test (one relevant to the role, the other about my personality). By mid June I was invited to the screening interview online with one recruiter followed by an in-person interview in the office with a recruiter and team lead (but not the lead of the team I would be working for). The interview lasted 1 hour and 45 minutes and covered standard work history questions followed by three live tests in front of the interviewers. A week later I was told I’d hear back in a week, which I didn’t, but then 3 weeks later I was offered the position.

The application process I went through was divided in two main parts. In the first one, I was asked to take a series of tests, mostly composed of multiple choice questions and open answer questions. Each test took ~30 minutes and, except for a small part, no coding was involved. All in all, the tests were not hard and they aimed at testing logical thinking in unfamiliar topics. (Some tests were also provided in the form of funny stories and scenarios). The tests had no deadline and I've been able to take them whenever I wanted in my free time. The second part of the process had me going through three interviews, two focused on myself and how I would behave in certain given situations (with examples, if possible), and one more practical interview were I was given two problems and was asked to explain how I would solve them and why I would proceed in a certain way. The interviews' difficulty was in line with the first part of the process; the interviewers were very helpful, with follow-up questions and explanation in case something was not clear enough. During the whole process I was followed by a recruiter, who took care of keeping me in the loop after each step I took, from the application to the last interview. At the end, I received very useful feedback from the recruiter about my application process. The whole process took around ~2 months, with a total of ~10 hours considering the tests and the interviews.

Candidatura online a cui segue un invito a sostenere una serie di quiz/giochi su una piattaforma terza per verificare alcune skill come capacità di ragionamento o memoria. Il test dura dalle 4 alle 6 ore
