Colloquio
Applied online, went to their offices for 30min coffee/interview, heard nothing else.
Sent follow-up e-mail after 1 week, received a response saying they had an overwhelming number of candidates and were moving forward with others. No problem. Then they then reposted the job a day later, so this was obviously nonsense, don't really appreciate being lied to.

Colloquio
Format is very thorough and the interview/recruiting process is lengthy. I applied online and got a call probably 3 or 4 weeks after submitting the application form. Then I got a phone interview with the head of marketing, after a couple of days they sent me an assignment and after that, I got an in-person interview with HR and the head of marketing. Finally, I went for another in-person interview with their CMO and they do an in-depth reference check.

Colloquio
I submitted my online application for this position and received an email for a phone interview the next day. I spoke with the marketing manager a few days later who was quite unfriendly and abrupt. The interview was obviously very one-sided and felt almost like I was on trial. The interviewer then looked at the social media following of an account I managed, read out the follower counts on all channels, and judged how successful he deemed the account to be (though he had no basic understanding of the company or industry to make these judgements). Even if I did get a second interview, I wouldn't have accepted based on this bad first impression. I understand companies are looking for the right candidate for the job, a little friendliness goes a long way in an interview.
