I applied on King's careers page late October, and as stated the applications would not be scanned until the 9th of December, when the deadline is.
I was contacted via email a week later and an online interview was setup for 2 weeks later. The interview was conducted using the Hirevue system which is a one-way interview the applicant completes on their own time. Albeit a bit impersonal and strange the questions asked were reasonable and the coding questions were pretty easy as well.
About half a month later I was notified that I had progressed to the next step, which was a face to face interview with a tech lead and a senior dev. It was primarily a value based interview mixed up with some technical questions about programming languages, APIs and technologies. During the end of this interview there was a coding test on the spot which is easy but pretty stressful having 2 devs watching you code..
Surprisingly I passed to the last stage which was an onsite interview and tour around the campus. The offices were amazing and everyone extremely friendly and accommodating. The HR was particularly impressive in terms of how fast they replied to my emails especially during preparations (flight tickets, scheduling) before the onsite interview.
Overall a very positive experience would definitely recommend.

Done through a online platform we're you need to film yourself answering the questions. You also need to do a development test and play some games. They don't give you any feedback and it's a very cold process.
Pre-recorded interviews, followed by in-person interviews. Very friendly, clear, and helpful individuals. Simple questions, focused on getting you to explain clearly and in detail.
Helpful with disabilities - very accommodating and my point of contact was kind.

Colloquio
You first have to do a recording interview where you answer 9 pre recorded questions (two of which will be simple coding exercises). After this the recruiter will take a look at your answers and decide if you can pass to the next step. The next step consists of 4 interviews, each one 45 minutes in length with some of the developpers at the studio you're applying to. Question revolve around your past projects and C++ general questions (pointers, abstraction, memory management...). The interviewers are all very nice and create a friendly environment. Once you've finished the interview you'll recieve an call from the recruiter letting you know wether you got the position or not.
