Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 3 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Riot Games
Colloquio
A recruiter contacted me on a Weekend, which is fine for me personally. However I think this is a good way to show that work/life balance can be tough for some people at Riot. Which many have already commented on.
Overall I had 2 reciter calls, 1 manager call, and 1 technical interview. What really annoyed me is after the interview they waited a full 3 weeks before giving any feedback after my last interview. Even though I had told them I had another company bringing me onsite and eventually gave me an offer.
I get the impression that riot engineers have the apple/google stigma. Thinking that they're the best engineers in the world and because of that, they get to treat everyone else poorly. I'd give warning to anyone interviewing at riot to be completely aware of the silicon snob effect is alive and well in Riot.
Very detailed and focused on craft, skills and quite a lot of case based questions aimed at understanding how my previous experience lines up with Riots values and expected behaviors.

Apart from my craft skills, about my value alignment
The first round was an intense behavioral with the Senior Engineering Manager. Next round was a take home assessment, and then a follow up interview to discuss the assessment. The follow up only did about 15 minutes about the assessment, and then it was 40 minutes of technical theory questions.
Interviewer had a Steven Hawking vibe. Lisp, didn't give me much eye contact, asked heavy behavioral questions but didn't give much feedback, just wrote down notes and next question, like a machine. No enthusiasm, guy's been there for over 20 years he's nothing like other Riot employees who's passionate. Barely even played League. Surprising experience I thought riot was vibrant and full of energy.
