Overall not a challenging interview.
However, one of the interviewers made a comment about my nationality, implying someone where im from have certain personality traits, leading me to believe possible prejudice. Very disappointing.
Also received feedback post interview about why i didn't get the job and the reasons listed were not questions that were asked...

Colloquio
The process was respectful but overall too long and heavy for a mid-level role. It included 5 stages and 8 interviewers in total: HR screening call, portfolio case presentation with 2 PrD, a whiteboard challenge with a PrD and a UXR, a stakeholders interview with an Engineer and a PM and a final interview with a PrD Lead.
While the conversations were thoughtful, the number of steps felt excessive and, at times, repetitive. After 3 months, since my application, I received a rejection. I appreciated the detailed final feedback, especially the breakdown of strengths and concerns. However, one of the rejection reasoning was confusing: I was told my design approach seemed not sufficient for the role in 2 early interviews, even though I was told I passed those rounds with positive feedback. That contradiction left me uncertain about what really led to the rejection.

The N26 Product Designer interview was professional yet impersonal. Interviewers remained neutral, focusing solely on skills without exploring personal aspects or asking any non-work-related questions. Felt a bit straight-to-business without even trying to break the ice.

Many questions, but mainly the questions revolved around how you work in user-centric environments and validate design decisions.
