Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 4 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Riot Games nel mese di nov 2016
Colloquio
First of all process is slow, so apply early, when advertisements are up. Also they employ only one person per position.
First I got an email, that I will get hackerrank test.
After about a week I got a link
I got a hackerrank test and did it, after about 3 days I got an answer, that I will get interview
after week I got info about interview and was asked to set date.
The first interview is 100% behaviour interview
Next week I had tech interview. I have failed at that stage
If I would pass, I would have onsite interview in Dublin.

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.
